Hi there, I am the designer of the briQ and by accident I noticed that YUM was a much better choice of update engine than apt-get which doesn't really work for me. The current strategy is as I see it: base, then update. Can this be made a more complex tree? The reason for this is as follows: The briQ is a PPC Open Firmware general industrial computer, which uses basically the same kernel as Apples machines, but sometimes the kernel misbehaves because the briQ has neither keyboard nor monitor. And sometimes this is not adequately tested for by the kernel folks. What I need is YUM to say: check YDL-base, then YDL-update and then Total Impact -update. Is that possible? Is it already there? I haven't tried just to add another update section. Secondary - how do I build the YUM tree? More specifically - how do you extract the headers. Yes - I noticed they are binary and not text so it may be clipped from the rpm.
