Re: another question about installing version specific rpms using yum

We are thinking about that approach. We have anywhere from 3-10 releases per service pack so the process could get unwieldy. I think we are going to try this out tomorrow.

Thanks

Edward, you could also use 3 repositories to handle 3 versions of the same rpm. You would just replace oldest version with the newest one, without tuching other 2.

The you could just disable other two (or one with the highest version) repositories and yum would see only desired one.

Thanks for your time - that is too bad since we are tied to RHEL4 for
the foreseeable future. The exclude option did work but that could
turn into a issue given the number of rpms our custom code requires.


You could work on a plugin to handle it - but - still you're right it's
just not going to be elegant.


You could also try any of the ports of yum 3.2.X to rhel4 from the
centos folks. Can't promise they'll handle everything but it is worth a
shot.
