I'm having difficulty with yum appending 'Fedora/RPMS/' onto the baseurl of my local repository when trying to update using a file:// URL. The relevant line(s) in my .repo are: [core] name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch #baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/$releasever/$basearch/os/ #mirrorlist=http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-$releasever baseurl=file:///srv/www/html/yum/Fedora/Core/$releasever/base/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY I think this behavior has to do with the file:// URL assuming it is using a Fedora distro CD as a repository and respecting the file layout of the CD. This particular .repo is from a machine that has been serving as a repository on a LAN... I could change it to use an http://127.0.0.1/... URL, but I wish to disable yum's behavior (appending 'Fedora/RPMS/') on another machine for use with mock. Suggestions??? -al __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
