I would revert your backup: mv -f yum.conf.bak yum.conf And install repositories in the recommended way; either manually create a .repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d (look at the other .repo files in there for syntax, it's pretty simple), or if the repository provides one, download the .repo file to that folder, or install the release RPM (which simply places .repo files you need). For example, livna's is at http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release5.rpm : [grinnz@bookdt43p ~]$ rpm -ql livna-release /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-livna /etc/yum.repos.d/livna-devel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/livna-testing.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo It provides the .repo files and the GPG key for the repository's signed packages, which will be imported automatically by yum the first time you use it. You can find this information on the repository's website; using the example of Livna, go to http://rpm.livna.org and click Configuration.

Hi, These are the commands that I ran. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@dhcppc0 etc]# mv -f yum.conf.bak yum.conf [root@dhcppc0 etc]# cd [root@dhcppc0 ~]# rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm Retrieving http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-5.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] package livna-release-5-4 is already installed [root@dhcppc0 ~]# rpm -ql livna-release /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-livna /etc/yum.repos.d/livna-devel.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/livna-testing.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did that straighten it out? Or did that just straighten out the livna configuration? I don''t understand this : "> And install repositories in the recommended way; either manually create
a .repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d (look at the other .repo files in there for syntax, it's pretty simple), or if the repository provides one, download the .repo file to that folder, or install the release RPM (which simply places .repo files you need)."
