Broken Yum
Hi, I can't use Yum to install packages anymore. When I try to install a package, I get this error:
Code:
http://cutter.sourceforge.net/centos/%24releasever/i386/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found
and I discovered the error to be that the variable %24releasever is not being expanded into "5" which is my version of centos and what the URL should be for it to work. So, I did some digging in yum.conf and found this to be the problem:
Code:
distroverpkg=release
which according to google, should be
Code:
distroverpkg=redhat-release
So I changed it to that, but now the error it prints is
Code:
http://cutter.sourceforge.net/centos/5.2/i386/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found
It prints that error because the 5.2 should be 5 which I discovered by going to the page in my browser and seeing that 5 is the only folder. I tried going into the redhat-release file and changing the version number there to 5 but it still tries to use 5.2.
How can I fix this? Thanks!!
