Yum is an updater / install system for various linux OS’s, and it’s pretty much a life saver when it comes to installing linux applications in a snap. However it’s not always installed on a linux account, so to get it setup, you can follow the instructions below; “Please note, if may ask to convert your Linux filesystem / OS, if you do not want to, please tell it no.”
1. First install yum by install the ART GPG key.
“wget http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY.art.txt rpm –import RPM-GPG-KEY.art.txt”
2. Once you have installed the key, please run the following;
“wget -q -O – http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic.sh | sh”
This will have installed the yum updater if you encountered no errors. You can now use yum to update and install your linux applications.
If you did run into some issues, here is file for some of the errors.
If you run into the following error, you need to make an update;
The GPG keys listed for the “Fedora Core 4 – i386 – Base” repository are already installed but they are not correct for this package.
Check that the correct key URLs are configured for this repository.
To resolve this, edit /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo and replace the line
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora
with:
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY
