For apt, just apt -- use its 'genbasedir' program to create the metadata. For yum, install and use 'createrepo'. But what you're trying to do is get updates onto new computers, right? Running a script to update after installation isn't what I'd do; instead, rebuild the install CDs with the old packages completely replaced. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
