for installation of codec files. I progressed with the following commands:
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
cd /etc
mv -f yum.conf yum.conf.bak
wget http://www.fedorafaq.org/samples/yum.conf
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
and then happened
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
[root@onsager Desktop]# rpm -Uvh http://www.fedorafaq.org/yum
Retrieving http://www.fedorafaq.org/yum
error: skipping http://www.fedorafaq.org/yum - transfer failed - Unknown or unexpected error
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
Not only I couldnt finish the installation, yumex stopped working. I removed yumex and tried reinstalling. It gives the following error:
#----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
[root@onsager drops]# yum install yumex
