Hi all,
I would like to be able to save the rpm files that yum downloads.
Thanks to the following nugget from Google...
"I believe what you are looking for is
/var/cache/yum/<repo>/packages. This directory is expunged during
package cleanup."
...I now know where they are stored.
Two part question:
When is package cleanup performed?
Is there a way to prevent the expunging?
In /etc/yum.conf, change keepcache=0 to keepcache=1.
Thanks Mikkel,
Solves question 2. I just now found that in "man yum.conf".
Would you know if there is a way to apply that to specific repos rather than
all? Seems like a good candidate to move from yum.conf into the individual
.repo files.
Sure, just add keepcache=1 to the .repo file instead of yum.conf.
