Not sure how this happened, but both up2date and yum disappeared from my RH 8.0 system. Tried downloading yum from dulag but the link on the download page is broken. So I compiled the srpm but the install step failed with [root@linux noarch]# rpm -Uvh yum-1.0.3-1_80.noarch.rpm file /etc/yum.conf from install of yum-1.0.3-1_80 conflicts with file from package atrpms-13-16.rh8.0.at I'm guessing the problem is that I'd added ATrpms to yum.conf with no knowledge of what the names mean than the (nonexistent) descriptions on the repository page. Some of them now look outright dangerous. Until I hear otherwise, I'll regard them responsible for this mess and advise everyone to beware. ATrpms-bleeding-rhl-8.0 ATrpms-good-rhl-8.0 ATrpms-stable-rhl-8.0 ATrpms-testing-rhl-8.0 Question is, now do I recover from this mess? I reinstalled up2date from redhat after recovering rpm-python with apt-get (which somehow survived the debacle). Yum is the main thing missing far as I know. --
