I want to export that as a repo so I don't have to download them on every new machine. I have no trouble saving the pacakges, or creating a repo, but at FC12 the format of /var/cache/yum changed, and I need to find info on exporting the packages, since the process I used with FC9 lo longer works. I already have a local repo, created by setting keepcache, but there's no doc I can find as to the trick in getting it *used*. Another way to create the local repo doesn't solve the problem. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
