Hi,

4. I have enabled the dries, kbsingh, and rpmforge, repositories
for few packages (acroread, pine,...). However, I didn't
keep track which packages come from those repos so I can't
apply the 'includepkgs' instruction on them. What's the
easiest way to recover that information? (Default
'yum list installed' doesn't provide the repository.)
I /var/log/rpmpkgs is a (weeklyupdated?) list of file names. Some have
".rf" in them, other "plus" etc. This should tell you for most packages
from where they came.
That't what I was looking for - thanks!
BTW, I noticed that the packages in the dries repo are labeled
with 'rf', the same as rpmforge. One is the mirror of the other?
I would then read up on some of the yum stuff (plugins) and use a
combination of "includepkgs=", "exclude=" and "protect=" to get you
going. Set this stuff up before you do any other changes.
"protect=" I used from the start in this installation. But I
realized the significance of "includepkgs=" and "exclude=" too
late. Hence my questions.
Thanks for the help.
Itay
Thanks in advance,
