yum installation

CentOS自带(yum-*.noarch.rpm) #rpm -ivh yum-*.noarch.rpm 在第一次启用yum之前首先需要导入系统的RPM-GPG-KEY： #rpm --import /usr/share/doc/centos-release-3(4)/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-3(4)

yum commandNote: When you use yum for the first time or when the yum resource library is updated, yum will automatically download all required headers and place them in /var/cache/yum directory, it may take a long time.

Update of rpm package

检查可更新的rpm包 #yum check-update 更新所有的rpm包 #yum update 更新指定的rpm包,如更新kernel和kernel source #yum update kernel kernel-source 大规模的版本升级,与yum update不同的是,连旧的淘汰的包也升级 #yum upgrade

Related parameters of yum temporary storage (/var/cache/yum/)

清除暂存中rpm包文件 #yum clean packages 清除暂存中rpm头文件 #yum clearn headers 清除暂存中旧的rpm头文件 #yum clean oldheaders 清除暂存中旧的rpm头文件和包文件 #yum clearn 或#yum clearn all 注:相当于yum clean packages + yum clean oldheaders

Package list

列出资源库中所有可以安装或更新的rpm包 #yum list 列出资源库中特定的可以安装或更新以及已经安装的rpm包 #yum list mozilla#yum list mozilla* 注:可以在rpm包名中使用匹配符,如列出所有以mozilla开头的rpm包 列出资源库中所有可以更新的rpm包 #yum list updates 列出已经安装的所有的rpm包 #yum list installed 列出已经安装的但是不包含在资源库中的rpm包 #yum list extras 注:通过其它网站下载安装的rpm包

rpm package information display (info parameter is the same as list)

列出资源库中所有可以安装或更新的rpm包的信息 #yum info 列出资源库中特定的可以安装或更新以及已经安装的rpm包的信息 #yum info mozilla#yum info mozilla* 注:可以在rpm包名中使用匹配符,如列出所有以mozilla开头的rpm包的信息 列出资源库中所有可以更新的rpm包的信息 #yum info updates 列出已经安装的所有的rpm包的信息 #yum info installed 列出已经安装的但是不包含在资源库中的rpm包的信息 #yum info extras 注:通过其它网站下载安装的rpm包的信息

Search rpm package

Add resource library

例如:增加rpm.livna.org作为资源库 安装Livna.org rpms GPG key #rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY 检查GPG Key # rpm -qa gpg-pubkey* 显示Key信息 #rpm -qi gpg-pubkey-a109b1ec-3f6e28d5 (注:如果要删除Key,使用#rpm -e gpg-pubkey-a109b1ec-3f6e28d5)

Commonly used commands in yum

# yum install xxx 安装xxx软件 # yum info xxx 查看xxx软件的信息 # yum remove xxx 删除软件包 # yum list 列出软件包 # yum clean 清除缓冲和就的包 # yum provides xxx 以xxx为关键字搜索包（提供的信息为关键字） # yum search xxx 搜索软件包（以名字为关键字） # yum groupupdate xxx # yum grouplist xxx # yum groupremove xxx

These three are a group upgrade list and delete operations. . For example, "Mysql Database" is a group that will operate all related software packages at the same time;

# yum update 系统升级 # yum list available 列出所有升级源上的包； # yum list updates 列出所有升级源上的可以更新包； # yum list installed 列出已经安装的包； # yun update kernel 升级内核；

Yum commonly used sources

1) Automatically select the fastest source

Since some mirrors in yum are very slow, if yum selects this mirror, yum will be very slow at this time. For this, you can download the fastestmirror plug-in, which will automatically select the fastest mirror:

#yum install yum-fastestmirror

Configuration file: (generally do not need to be touched)/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf

The speed test record file of your yum mirror:/var/cache/yum/timedhosts. txt

(2) Use the graphical interface yum

If you find the command line yum inconvenient, you can use the graphical yumex, which seems more convenient because you can freely choose the software Warehouse:

#yum install yumex

Then you can see the yum extender in the system tools. In fact, the "Add/Remove Programs" that comes with the system can also implement graphical software installation, but it does not have some of the functions of yumex.
