Scientific Linux: yum-conf Legacy Mode Changes - Security Errata

yum-conf - legacy mode changes. Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 14:00:06 -0600 Reply-To: Troy Dawson Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Troy Dawson Subject: Security ERRATA for yum-conf on SL3,x i386/x86_64 Comments: To: "This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it." Synopsis: yum-conf - legacy mode changes Issue date: 2007-12-13 yum-conf changes are needed for the transition of SL 3 into legacy mode. Changes from the old yum-conf * The files /etc/yum.conf and /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron are not marked as "noreplace". This means that if you have modified /etc/yum.conf or /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron, your version will be saved as *.rpmsave and the new version will be put in it's place. * All the /etc/yum.conf.* files have been removed except yum.conf.309, yum.conf.30x, and yum.conf.flash * The yum.conf entries are pointing at /linux/scientific/obsolete/30*, except for the errata area of /linux/scientific/309/. * The yum.cron (/etc/cron.daily/yum.cron) is the yum.cron from yum-conf-309. It does not point to 309, but has the following changes. - The yum.cron uses your /etc/yum.conf. If your /etc/yum.conf has an excludes line already in it, it adds the entries in /etc/yum.d/yum.cron.excludes. If your /etc/yum.conf does not have an excludes line, it adds one, with the entries from /etc/yum.cron.excludes - It does not use /etc/yum.d/yum.cron.primary or /etc/yum.d/yum.cron.secondary. You need to put the list of yum repositories you want yum to go to in /etc/yum.conf SL 3.0.1 SRPMS: yum-conf-301-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-301-8.SL.noarch.rpm SL 3.0.2 SRPMS: yum-conf-302-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-302-8.SL.noarch.rpm x86_64: yum-conf-302-8.SL.noarch.rpm SL 3.0.3 SRPMS: yum-conf-303-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-303-8.SL.noarch.rpm x86_64: yum-conf-303-8.SL.noarch.rpm SL 3.0.4 SRPMS: yum-conf-304-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-304-8.SL.noarch.rpm x86_64: yum-conf-304-8.SL.noarch.rpm SL 3.0.5 SRPMS: yum-conf-305-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-305-8.SL.noarch.rpm x86_64: yum-conf-305-8.SL.noarch.rpm SL 3.0.7 SRPMS: yum-conf-307-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-307-8.SL.noarch.rpm x86_64: yum-conf-307-8.SL.noarch.rpm SL 3.0.8 SRPMS: yum-conf-308-8.SL.src.rpm i386: yum-conf-308-8.SL.noarch.rpm x86_64: yum-conf-308-8.SL.noarch.rpm -Connie Sieh -Troy Dawson .
