Re: Centos 6.3 - which repos to use?

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



I've tried this command:

yum deplist gnutls --disableplugin=filter-data,priorities
--disableexcludes=all --enablerepo=\* > yum_01.txt

... that yum_01.txt file was around 202KB in my case.

Result is formatted like this:
##<...snip...>
package: gnutls.i686 2.12.22-1.fc18
	dependency: libz.so.1
		provider: zlib.i686 1.2.3-27.el6

		provider: libgcrypt.i686 1.4.5-9.el6_2.2
	dependency: libgcrypt >= 1.2.2
		provider: libgcrypt.i686 1.5.0-8.fc18
		provider: libgcrypt.i686 1.4.5-9.el6_2.2
		provider: libgcrypt.i686 1.5.0-6.fc18
		provider: libgcrypt.i686 1.4.0-15.el6
		provider: libgcrypt.i686 1.4.5-9.el6
##<...snip...>

the problem is ... in the "provider" lines, yum is not showing repo
name, after showing lib/pkg name & version, on each line !

If repo, pkg/lib, version, arch, etc are shown & known ... Then it
would have been bit easier to build a technique what to keep and
what to update.
