Hi,
Here is a newbie question:
I could not find any "recursive" options for yum
groupinfo command. I mean if a group contains other
groups, then a 'yum groupinfo <group>' will show only
the packages directly defined in it, not any packages
defined in enclosed groups.
Although 'yum groupinstall <group>' will install
packages in enclosed groups.
Any one can tell this newbie a way to list all
packages, directly defined or enclosed in subgroups,
in one run?
The "group" information comes from a "comps" file in the repository. The
format of this file has changed in FC5 and "groupreq"s are no longer
supported. So yum will only see package dependencies when you do a
groupinstall, rather than full group dependencies.
"yum grouplist" should still show you all the groups though.
