Re: Why are not all RPMs displayed
Hello John, Thanks for looking into that. You say the packages that you want are 'in the repo' I see only four kernel-devel packages in https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ftp.scientificlinux.org_linux_scientific_7x_x86-5F64_updates_security_=DwIBAg=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=_3M6FrJtTVZjayecd5vwRmx-4FYK_CIl5_jf8eLHVDo=bL9FfYgGTsWfhAt_lQV9HtHZY16nRnY2xb9znBxm1IA= They are 3.10.0-862.2.3 -862.3.2, -862.3.3 and -862.6.3 Yes, but if that is the link that you got from my email, it has really be obfuscated, because I referred to https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ftp.scientificlinux.org_linux_scientific_7.1_x86-5F64_updates=DwIBAg=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=_3M6FrJtTVZjayecd5vwRmx-4FYK_CIl5_jf8eLHVDo=A37jci2_ztyHQvRvuBgTwyflm_Xs1LbsPhpuD7ibxnk= which I believed was defined in my /etc/yum.repos.d/sl7-security.repo as https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ftp.scientificlinux.org_linux_scientific_-24slreleasever_-24basearch_updates_security_=DwIBAg=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A=_3M6FrJtTVZjayecd5vwRmx-4FYK_CIl5_jf8eLHVDo=47bMzDq-VeTvBb8QGXYsd2uI5WDo31ZgWgojffNRIbE= But I was wrong!

I added a "new" repo "sl-security71" with $slreleasever=7.1 to /etc/yum.repos.d/, and hooray! All packages can be seen now with "yum list". :-) Trying to obtain the same result (i.e. access to 7.1 RPMs through yum) by changing the content of /etc/yum/vars/slreleasever to "7.1" failed, though! (Tried also "yum clean all" just because, but no difference.) Anyway, I learned a lot today! And I have a recipe to get older packages directly through yum. Cheers Dirk
