Hi Eero,
I believe that using --releasever=N doesn't make a permanenent change.
You will need to set your release version to 6.2, 6x or 6rolling if you
want to be pulling from the 6.2 repos the next time you run yum --
otherwise you'll be puzzled why you're not getting updates.
I'm unsure if there is a more elegant solution, but I think the only
place to make that change permanent is by doing something like:
sed --in-place=.bak -e "s/6.1/6x/" /etc/redhat-release
Or do the equivalent by hand. But that might be a crude hack -- Someone
else here please pipe up if there is a better way.
Or there is always:
alias yum="yum --releasever=6x"
Cheers
