Hi hersh,<br>
<br>
See my detailed answer on this subject on Rocks mailing list
(October 26) :<br>

<br>
I did nothing in yum.conf. I am using Rocks 5.3 at this moment :<br>
# cat yum.conf<br>
[main]<br>
cachedir=/var/cache/yum<br>
debuglevel=2<br>
logfile=/var/log/yum.log<br>
pkgpolicy=newest<br>
distroverpkg=redhat-release<br>
tolerant=1<br>
exactarch=1<br>

name=Rocks 5.3<br>

Fw: [CentOS] Add repo for xfig package<br>

<br>
Rocks 5.4 is not a recompile of CentOS 5, it uses CentOS as
its base <br>
distribution, and add configuration, database, tools, MPI,
batch job <br>
scheduler etc..., for HPC calculation.<br>
<br>
As a yum update may break the configuration,
/etc/yum.repos.d/ is empty <br>
by default.<br>
<br>
I use myself Rocks, an I populate /etc/yum/repos.d/ by
copying what I <br>
have on other CentOS workstations, but avoid to do any
update.<br>
<br>
With Rocks, you do update by upgrading to the newest version
(which <br>
would be Rocks 5.5, based on CentOS 5.6...).<br>
