I have recently started doing things with YUM which is raising questions. I am listing my /etc/yum.conf in its entirety and from this I am wondering how YUM knows that is might want to go to yum.repos.d to get anything?? Can anyone show me how the system knows this? # Note: This file is no longer the entire yum configuration # for fedorafaq.org. See http://www.fedorafaq.org/#yumconf # for details on how to set up your system with the new # yum configuration. [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=redhat-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 # We don't want to gpg-check local, unsigned packages #gpgcheck=1 # Changed this because some mirrors go down and then # re-trying takes forever. retries=1 timeout=10 # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d [ve1drg@mach3 etc]$
