This section tells yum to look for the updates files in the os repository, which contains only the packages at the time of release of the version.

Either change the baseurl setting to

Code:

baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/updates/i386/

or use the mirrorlist= directive instead. mirrorlist would look for a mirror close to your location resulting in better download speed. Your baseurl= setting tells yum to always download from the main CentOS website, which might be a lot slower.

The same is true for the other sections (extras, centosplus,...)

debuginfo-install

debuginfo-install(1)													      debuginfo-install(1)

NAME

       debuginfo-install - install debuginfo packages and their dependencies

SYNOPSIS

       debuginfo-install package

DESCRIPTION

       debuginfo-install  is a program which installs the RPMs needed to debug the specified package.  The package argument can be a wildcard, but
       will only match installed packages.  debuginfo-install will then enable any debuginfo repositories, and install the relevant debuginfo rpm.

EXAMPLES

       Download and install all the RPMs needed to debug the kernel RPM:
	      debuginfo-install kernel

WARNING MESSAGES

       Could not find debuginfo for:
	      You may sometimes see warning messages about certain packages not being found if you run debuginfo-install for a wildcard  or  glob.
	      Debuginfo  packages are not necessary for "noarch" RPMs; these will generate a warning message.  Additionally, On 64-bit systems, no
	      multilib debuginfo packages are published, so if you have 32-bit packages installed, these will also generate warning messages.

FILES

       As debuginfo-install uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the information, it relies on YUM configuration  for	its  default  values  like
       which repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:

       /etc/yum.conf
       /etc/yum/repos.d/
       /var/cache/yum/

AUTHORS

       See the Authors file included with this program.

BUGS

       There  are  of  course no bugs, but should you find any, you should first consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq and if
       unsuccessful in finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org.  To file a bug  use	http://bugzilla.redhat.com
       for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
