First a preface:
Was told last night at the ALE meeting that the only way to solve
my CD burning issues was to do a clean update of KDE rpms using
the material available on SourceForge. So, this morning went off to
SourceForge and am ready to follow directions -- only I don't
trust them.
I am told to download a file [kde-redhat.repo] and drop it
into /etc/yum.repos.d/ (I am using yum 2.1.11 on a FC3 system.)
Did that.
This is a text file with pointers (?) to kde-redhat-stable,
-stable-all, -kde-redhat-testing, -testing-all, -unstable, and
-unstable-all. I do not think I want to be downloading material
from the testing and unstable repositories. Yet my yum.conf file
has a line "pkgpolicy=newest".
So much for the preface. My question is this:
Do I need to edit this file [kde-redhat.repo] to remove references
to the testing and unstable branches? Or comment them out with "#" ?
Sean
