Right; I do create the instance pointing to some existing repo's, so I have something to put into the yumbase initially. I was just checking if there is a better way to do this than to create a yum.conf configuration file, on the fly, for each run. Mock does this, by including a yum.conf template in its configuration, so I'm assuming not. _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
