Ya, urpmi is pretty sweet. > how to make it search RPM repositories on the 'net yet, but i plan on doing man urpmi.addmedia will give you all the details of adding other media such as an ftp site. An example would look like this: urpmi.addmedia plf ftp://plf.chem.yorku.ca/pub/plf/9.0 with hdlist.cz you will then be able to d/l and install all the MDK 9 PLF packages, for example # urpmi transcode You can then use # urpmi.removemedia plf to get rid of the source or # urpmi.update plf to update the list of packages if it has changed.
