This is not the 'yum list available' command. Why did it return?? kernel.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-PAE.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-PAE-devel.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-devel.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-kdump.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-kdump-devel.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-xen.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed kernel-xen-devel.i686 2.6.18-1.2784.fc6 installed openmotif.i386 2.3.0-0.4 installed openmotif-devel.i386 2.3.0-0.4 installed Since, I can't specify the name of the repo that I want to check against on the command line, then I could just disable the repo in /etc/yum.repos.d. This is inconvenient just for checking what is available. ============================================================================== Also, the following works okay: yum list available "*" |grep development yum list available "*" |grep extras-devel ============================================================================== Thanks, Ernesto > > 'yum list available' and that's it.
