Thanks for the reply.
I'm using the following entry in my yum repo file
[Centos4-x86_64-base]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Base
#baseurl=http://centos.mirror.ac.za/4/os/x86_64/
baseurl=http://mirror.ukhost4u.com/centos/4/os/x86_64/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-4
I changed mirrors above to test if it was a problem with the mirror
When I run the following command, it syncs 486 packages only
#> reposync --repoid=Centos4-x86_64-base
[Centos4-x86_64-base: 485 of 486 ] Skipping existing
CentOS/RPMS/zlib-1.2.1.2-1.2.i386.rpm
[Centos4-x86_64-base: 486 of 486 ] Skipping existing
CentOS/RPMS/zlib-devel-1.2.1.2-1.2.i386.rpm
Surely there has to be more than 486 packages on the mirror? The same happens
with other repo's although they have different counts
So, I pull down http://mirror.ukhost4u.com/centos/4/os/x86_64/, strip the crud
off and...:
grep -v x86_64 index.html |wc -l
486
I'm guessing you're doing the reposync on a 32bit machine?
reposync --repoid=Centos4-x86_64-base --arch=x86_64
Perhaps?
