[Yum-devel] Is "yum clean all" problem or repository issue? Newpackages could not show after "yum clean all"

[jigang.djg]

after new packages were added to the reposity, did you update the repos ?
run command  like this:
 /usr/bin/createrepo --update -d -p  rhel/5Server/x86_64

and then, run command on the client:
yum list | grep new_pkg_name

can you see the name of your newly-added packages ?

"yum  clean all" is just used to clean local cache on the client.

For your question or test, the operations below may help you:

1): update the repos as the way i told you above.
2): run comand on the client: yum clean all
3): run command on the client to view whether new pacakges have already been stored in the new repo files:

zcat  repo_path/repodata/primary.xml.gz | grep new_pkg_name

good luck ~~

主题： [Yum-devel] Is "yum clean all" problem or repository issue? Newpackages could not show after "yum clean all"
Hi,
I built a private yum repository, it works and all packages can be
shown from another machine yum list. but when I added more packages to
the private yum repository, the yum list could not show the new one
just added. I did "yum clean all", it did not help either.
Since I can never test with public yum repositories if the "yum clean
all" works to show packages which have just been added to the
repository. Is it the problem for the "yum clean all", or it is the
problem for my private yum repository? My question is how can I test
the "yum clean all" to show packages just added from public yum
repository? Or how can I fix the yum repository to show new packages?
BTW, the client machine yum.conf has already set keepcache=0.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Jupiter
