Setting Up Yum

In Red Hat 9, I had a bunch of repositories to get extra packages with apt-get. In Fedora, the prefered package installer is yum, but the configuration file only points to the official repositories. Luckily, FreshRPMS has the updated configuration file that goes in /etc/yum.conf.

After this, the packages were downloaded but not installed. I was getting a "public key not available" message. This was fixed with

rpm --import http://svn.rpmforge.net/svn/trunk/rpms/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora

rpm --import http://svn.rpmforge.net/svn/trunk/rpms/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-freshrpms

rpm --import http://svn.rpmforge.net/svn/trunk/rpms/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-redhat

rpm --import http://svn.rpmforge.net/svn/trunk/rpms/yum/RPM-GPG-KEY-yellowdog
