Linux Package Dependencies

Hi,

I do not have a net connection all the time, so I have configured local yum
repos. I even tried rsyncing one of the livna repositories. I have all the
packages listed in one of the Livna repos. However now that I am not
connected to net, I tried to install some packages and I still get
dependencies error.

Can someone guide me on the best way to install packages with no dependency
errors. Is there a site that provides the dependencies along with the
package src codes or rpm packages.

Ashish

If you have a complete local repository, you can easily modify yum.conf 
to point to it. Refer

Re: Linux Package Dependencies

Hi Rahul,

I have already made this repo. However the issue is that still I get
dependencies errors. If you can guide me to some site, that provides all the
'lib' packages, that would be very helpful.

Post your repository configuration files and the exact error you are 
getting if you want to specific help. If your local repository is 
complete there shouldn't be any issues.  There is a number of utilities 
there are part of yum-utils package which can help here.

All complete mirrors carry the library packages.

Cherry picking just libs will likely not resolve all the dependencies 
however since packages may not just depend on libraries but on other 
applications as well.
