Hi, Currently, all the paths in yum are hardcoded into the source files (/usr/share/yum-cli, /etc/yum.conf, etc.). It would be nice if these could be changed at build time to support an installation not to /usr. Would you be interested in having this functionality? I got about halfway through a patch and then decided I should ask in case it has no chance of being applied. The method I'm using is pretty simple. There's a top-level config.mk that has the prefix/bindir type variables and a substitution function. Any files containing pathnames have been moved to *.in files and then run through the sed substitution to get the final files. The reason I'm interested in this is for the purposes of bootstrapping a system. I'd like to use a yum with an alternate prefix that won't conflict with the real (to be installed) yum. Any interest? Thanks. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum
