Thanks.
I am confused (obviously) about which repositories to use.
This is my "rawhide" /etc/yum.repos.d:
[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# ls
fedora-devel.repo
fedora-updates.repo
livna.repo
fedora-extras-devel.repo
fedora-updates-testing.repo
xycb-stable.repo (for K3B)
fedora-extras.repo
freshrpms.repo
fedora.repo
kde.redhat.repo
Would you please tell me which I should use just for FC4 and which for
rawhide/testing?
(I put them on single lines for your convenience)
As I'm not an advocate of heavy mixing of repositories, I don't tell you
what repositories you "should use", but which repositories I believe are
made for FC4 and which for Rawhide, respectively.
FC4:
fedora-updates.repo (this is Fedora Core Updates)
livna.repo
fedora-updates-testing.repo (enabled=no)
xycb-stable.repo (for K3B) (enabled=no - k3b is part of Core!)
fedora-extras.repo
freshrpms.repo
fedora.repo (this is Fedora Core)
kde.redhat.repo
Rawhide:
fedora-devel.repo (Fedora Core 5 Development, still aka Rawhide)
fedora-extras-devel.repo
Be particularly careful with repositories, which offer packages built for FC4,
which are not only seen as newer than packages in FC4 (fedora.repo and
fedora-updates.repo), but also seen as newer than packages for Rawhide.
