I use autoupdate. I have it run everynight, checking rpmfind.net for new rpms. It downloads them, installs them, and later in the night I run genhdlist. This keeps my RPMS directory completely up to date, so that when I do an FTP install, it is always with the latest RPMS. I am working on some scripts now that will allow me to better control what rpms make it into my distribution, but for right now, autoupdate works very well for me. You can find autoupdate at http://www.mat.univie.ac.at/~gerald/ftp/autoupdate/ Ron Reed On Tue, 2003-03-11 at 09:17, Jason P Holland wrote: > Hello all, > I was wondering if anyone knows of any tools already written or > hanging > around that can automate keeping an installation repository of rpms > uptodate with the current patched rpms??
