Hi I have noticed that sometimes when I run "yum install" or "yum list", it wants to update the repository [root@localhost trunk]# yum install glibc-static.x86_64 Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * epel: ftp.riken.jp * sl: ftp.scientificlinux.org * sl-security: ftp.scientificlinux.org
epel/primary_db 21% [=======- ] 65.0 kB/s | 1.1 MB 00:10 ETA However for some other "list" and "install" commands, there is no repository update. What is the reason for that? Maybe because it "epel" and has not been shipped with the default SL. Regards, Mahmood
