Hi folks

I'm trying to install amavisd-new on Centos 5.3. There is a lot of failed dependencies errors when I try to install it. My question is, there is a way to automatically get all the rpm dependencies I need and get them saved somewhere in my hard drive for future installations? I'm behind a squid proxy.

To keep the cache, edit the /etc/yum.conf file and add: keepcache=1

The yum cache will be in /var/cache/yum/REPO_NAME.

E.g., the rpmforge repo will be /var/cache/yum/rpmforge/packages.

You can copy the rpms in that dir to the same location on the next server.. *or* share the location as a repository. For one offs, it's probably easier to just copy the rpms.
