Hi, all.
I have both Beefy on a desktop machine & a laptop. On the desktop
variety, `yum update` works fine but on the laptop it's always throwing
errors (timing out, 401s, etc).
These look like network issues to me. Exact error messages would help.
[...]
What I'd like to do is check that the laptop is using the same sources
for Fedora Releases as the desktop & if, as I suspect, it's not, change
it so as not to encounter these errors.
I've tried Googling on the subject but I'm just seeing results for
`/etc/yum.repos` which are not the source files with the relevant
information I'll need so if anyone can point me to the relevant config
files, I'd appreciate it.
What do you mean by "sources"? Are you using Debian terminology for
repositories? If yes, then "/etc/yum.repos.d/" is indeed the right
place.
If it is indeed a repo mirror problem, the output of the following
should help.
$ yum repolist
Check if you the "baseurl" line is commented out in the enabled repo
files in /etc/yum.repos.d/. For more info you can look at
`man yum.conf'.
