RE: RPM vs YUM

Basically, yes they are. YUM actually uses the RPM database to figure out what is installed, and then checks it against its database to see what updates are available.

Hey mates,

Probably a really stupid question but...

Are packages (.rpm's) installed using "rpm -i *.rpm" plugged into the yum database too? I mean do they get updated with yum update, etc?

If not, is there a way to make them so?
