Hello,
I have been smoothly running a Yum server on RH 7.3 for a few months and
now have a need to change over to a Suse 8.2 server. The 7.3 server is
gone and
I want to use its ftp server and yum to update my RH client pc's.
Intalling yum-1.0.1.tar.gz went fine but when I use yum-arch, I get
errors.On Suse 8.2 Python is version python-2.2.2-92 -but- to my
surprise RPM is only version 3.x
bookpc:/srv/ftp/pub/8.0 # rpm -qa | grep rpm
rpm-3.0.6-478
When I run yum-arch I get this message:
bookpc:/srv/ftp/pub/8.0 # yum-arch .
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum-arch", line 22, in ?
import pullheaders
File "pullheaders.py", line 24, in ?
ImportError: No module named rpm
First of all I can't understand why Suse uses version 3 of rpm but that
is a whole other discussion. My question is can I use yum on this
machine? Do I have to upgrade RPM to 4? Can I use a diff version of
yum?
Thanks and great work on yum
Kevin B
