Perhaps I'm missing something obvious here but I'm trying to get yum,
running as a non-root user with a custom config file, to cache data
somewhere other than under /var/tmp.
I'm running repoclosure checks on a bunch of different repos and have
these entries in my yum config files:
cachedir=/home/paul/lib/repoc/cache
persistdir=/home/paul/lib/repoc/lib
However, nothing is stored in either of these directories and instead I
get directory /var/tmp/yum-paul-<6-random-characters> filling up with a
few gigabytes of cache data that I'd rather store elsewhere and not fill
up the /var partition.
How can I get yum to put this data where I want it?
Cheers, Paul.
