Is up2date going to pasture?Is up2date going to pasture?Posted Feb 5, 2005 3:24 UTC (Sat) by macfisherman (guest, #6018)Parent article: Fedora Extras available for download
Or is yum the preferred tool? I ask because it seems strange to me to always see instructions for how to add the repository for yum but not for RH's native update tool.

Is up2date going to pasture? Posted Feb 9, 2005 11:46 UTC (Wed) by Kurrelgyre (guest, #5600) [Link] I've never seen ANY OFFICIAL document stating that up2date is being phased out in favor of yum. I'm getting a little tired of the assumption being made everywhere when no one's ever been able to point me at anything to back it up. I LIKE up2date as my frontend to RHN on RHEL and for yum repositories on FC.
So, to continue to use up2date, import the GPG key as indicated in the readme and then add the repository line for your appropriate release and architecture to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources:
# Fedora Extras for Fedora Core 3
That's it. When you eventually migrate to FC4, just switch the 3 to 4. Currently, only release 3 on i386 and x86_64 seem to have packages.
