Re: Creating complete repository: SOLVED

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Finally got what I needed!

Instead of chroot which was suggested earlier, I used fakeroot.  This worked because it basically ran yum in a fresh root directory in which it didn't think anything was installed.  As a result, it downloaded all the dependencies.

I think chroot would have worked as well, but it required more setup.  I would have needed to create a minimal linux setup in a directory to run as a chroot.  Also, because of this setup, I was't sure if yum would download all the packages - it might think some dependencies are already satisfied and choose not to download them.

Thanks again for everyone's help!

Am replying  to different parts here,

as a test
yum erase dropbox
seen what it want to pull out with it
possibly nautilus-dropbox?
click N

yum erase sqlite
there may be quite a few.
It will show you which pkg is really important,
and as yum uses sqlite it's a pre-requisite.
click N

If your sysadmin allows it, I would yum erase dropbox,
until you get sorted with the repo stuff.

Also if your internal apps are rpm?
Make sure everything is built against the correct python release.
try set them up as a yum group
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Software_Management_Guide/ch08s03.html
"your stuff group"

so they can be managed with the system-config-kickstart (gui)
as a group

kickstart is still actively maintained,
Revisor is borked since F13 days,
Pungi is unmaintained since F16? iirc
