They are RPM package fragments and contains the package description and management information necessary for learning about a package and for solving dependencies, for instance. Since the RPM header is a fragment of an RPM package, a header is downloaded for each new package that is available at RHN. Rather than deleting all these headers manually, I would suggest you install a simple cron job to get rid of headers once they are older than a few months or so. Whether to keep downloaded packages in the spool directory, can be switched on/off with up2date-config or up2date --configure. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+REzZ0iMVcrivHFQRAiVTAJ474HoJaPxJAg9GTNc/1vGlIpMCkgCgh5W1 ZZp5bkxDNX1QOS4wwVZruLg= =lBX1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
