For myself I usually mirror the relevant arch parts of updates and
updates-testing and only put a few special things in a local repo.
Thanks for the reply.
Are they to be copied from /var/cache/yum to the dir that is to be used as local repo ? On my PC (this is a non-networked desktop PC), this directory has:
/fedora/packages/ & /updates/packages - both newly-created after I started the Update applet.
I Googled for this for Fedora Linux, but mostly the results refer to networked PC's.
