Or should I just > google for the rpm name and download it from any old place? yum list <packagename> That will tell you all the places that package can come from. You will have to grep for the specific package number or look at the list. Once a package in ON YOUR MACHINE, it is also in the installed repo ... but you can also install packages by hand from NO repos. If you use the command: rpm -qi <packagename> That will tell you if it is a CentOS package ... and you can see if it signed by a CentOS key. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
