Looking through the man page for yum it states that yum will keep the updates packages till you delete them. But this is not happening to me on Fedora 7.
Is there a switch to run "yum install" and keep the downloaded packages on disk.
Man yum.conf . Look for 'keepcache'. The manual page says that preserving the cache is default, but in the fedora provided yum.conf the setting is effectively set to delete after successful installation.
Huh, glad you mentioned it as I read that bit about preserving the cache as default and didn't both to check it. Thanx, Ric
