How does one do this? Reading through the man pages for yum it doesn't look like its possible? I could use rpm, but I was hoping to pull down deps through yum automagically.
Thanks! jlc
For CentOS5, you could use yum-downloadonly plugin : # rpm -qi yum-downloadonly [ output shortened ] Name : yum-downloadonly Relocations: (not relocatable) Group : System Environment/Base Source RPM: yum-utils-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.src.rpm URL : http://linux.duke.edu/yum/download/yum-utils/ Summary : Yum plugin to add downloadonly command option Description : This plugin adds a --downloadonly flag to yum so that yum will only download the packages and not install/update them.
