It is not as simple as you and Vahis suggest:
* Installeert createrepo-0.4.10-32 [100%]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cd /home/monkey9/RPM/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/RPM> createrepo
Error: Must specify a directory to index.
createrepo [options] directory-of-packages
Options:
-u, --baseurl <url> = optional base url location for all files
-o, --outputdir <dir> = optional directory to output to
-x, --exclude = files globs to exclude, can be specified multiple times
-q, --quiet = run quietly
-n, --noepoch = don't add zero epochs for non-existent epochs
(incompatible with yum and smart but required for
systems with rpm < 4.2.1)
-g, --groupfile <filename> to point to for group information
(precreated)
(<filename> relative to directory-of-packages)
-v, --verbose = run verbosely
-c, --cachedir <dir> = specify which dir to use for the checksum cache
-C, --checkts = don't generate repo metadata, if their ctimes are newer
than the rpm ctimes.
-h, --help = show this help
-V, --version = output version
-p, --pretty = output xml files in pretty format.
--update = update existing metadata (if present)
-d, --database = generate the sqlite databases.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/RPM> createrepo -u
Options Error: option -u requires argument.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/RPM> createrepo -u /home/monkey9/RPM/
Error: Must specify a directory to index.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/RPM> createrepo -u /home/monkey9/RPM
Error: Must specify a directory to index.
How to specify such a directory than?
I do not mind to move the rpm's to another directory, or change the
name... but this is not very obvious, if you ask me?
