Hello.
I am working on some systems running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. I am compiling the latest RH kernel with some custom changes on a bunch of these machines. I want to use yum to update the applications as well, but I ran into a problem with repositories. It seems my system is the only one with three RH repositories that contain RPMs I need to compile the kernels. So far yum on two other systems I worked on do not have these repositories. I am trying to figure out how my system knows about these two extra repos. Here is my information below.
[root@Huskies etc]# uname -r
2.6.18-92.1.10.el5
[root@Huskies etc]# uname -m
x86_64
[root@Huskies etc]# rpm -qa | grep yum
yum-updatesd-0.9-2.el5
yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5
yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.3-12.el5_2.9
yum-3.2.8-9.el5_2.1
[root@Huskies etc]# yum repolist all
Loading "rhnplugin" plugin
repo id repo name status
rhel-debuginfo Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5Client - x86_6 disabled
rhel-x86_64-client-5 None enabled
rhel-x86_64-client-s None enabled
rhel-x86_64-client-w None enabled
=====================================
Here is a system I am trying to update.
[root@nebulous yum.repos.d]# rpm -qa | grep yum
yum-updatesd-0.9-2.el5
yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el5
yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.3-12.el5_2.9
yum-3.2.8-9.el5_2.1
[root@nebulous yum.repos.d]# uname -r
2.6.18-92.1.1.el5
[root@Huskies etc]# uname -m
x86_64
[root@nebulous yum.repos.d]# yum repolist all
Loading "rhnplugin" plugin
repo id repo name status
rhel-debuginfo Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5Client - x86_6 disabled
rhel-x86_64-client-5 None
=====================================
As you can see the "rhel-x86_64-client-s" and "rhel-x86_64-client-w" are missing. Where are these repos being defined?
Here is my /etc/yum.conf, it is default I think
[root@Huskies etc]# cat yum.conf
[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
keepcache=0
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
distroverpkg=redhat-release
tolerant=1
exactarch=1
obsoletes=1
gpgcheck=1
plugins=1
# Note: yum-RHN-plugin doesn't honor this.
metadata_expire=1h
# Default.
# installonly_limit = 3
# PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo
# in /etc/yum.repos.d
=====================================
[root@Huskies yum.repos.d]# pwd
/etc/yum.repos.d
[root@Huskies yum.repos.d]# ls -a

[root@Huskies yum.repos.d]# cat rhel-debuginfo.repo

=====================================
[root@Huskies yum]# pwd

[root@Huskies yum]# ls -a

[root@Huskies yum]# cat yum-updatesd.conf
[main]
# how often to check for new updates (in seconds)
run_interval = 3600
# how often to allow checking on request (in seconds)
updaterefresh = 600
# how to send notifications (valid: dbus, email, syslog)
emit_via = dbus
# should we listen via dbus to give out update information/check for
# new updates
dbus_listener = yes
# automatically install updates
do_update = no
# automatically download updates
do_download = no
# automatically download deps of updates
do_download_deps = no
[root@Huskies yum]# cd pluginconf.d/
[root@Huskies pluginconf.d]# ls -a
. .. rhnplugin.conf
[root@Huskies pluginconf.d]# cat rhnplugin.conf
[main]
enabled = 1
gpgcheck = 1
=====================================
I am thinking there is another location where repositories are defined. But so far everything I read has only mentioned yum.conf or /etc/yum.repos.d. Any help on figuring this out is appreciated. Thanks.
