I've been trying to fix a repository issue on a F8 machine. I was given
a 'teach you how to fish' version of the process; I made some progress,
but now I'm stumped. The advice was to find the RPM for this release,
and find the /etc/yum.repos.d file.
I *think* that I found the RPM; on the dvd, in the directory 'Packages'
is "rpm-4.4.2.2-3.fc8.i386.rpm" - is that the file I need? (For a
download, it's .../os/Packages.)
I opened it with the archive manager. My problem is that I can't find
that repos file.
What's the story?
The repository files are not part of the RPM package. Usually it is part
of some <foo>-release package where foo is the name of the repository.
In Fedora, it is in the fedora-release RPM package.
