Full Discussion: Yum repository not working in Fedora 16
Operating Systems Linux Fedora Yum repository not working in Fedora 16 Post 302993990 by drysdalk on Friday 17th of March 2017 07:30:13 AM

Hi,

As best as I can tell, that mirror list is correct. It's just that some/most of those mirrors won't actually be carrying content for Fedora 16 any longer. You'd have to go through each of them, find one that actually works and has all the relevant folders/content still there, then update your Yum repo file to directly use that one.

For example, ftp.heanet.ie seems to have all the Fedora 16 content still. The main packages can be found here:

http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/fedora/...4/os/Packages/

However, that brings us on to the second issue. You say you want to install LANforge. That was never a standard part of Fedora, and is not part of the Fedora 16 main OS repo (or the repo of any other release of Fedora, as best as I can tell). No doubt it has various pre-requisites that you'll need from the main Fedora repo (or so I imagine: I've never heard of or dealt with LANforge before, so my only knowledge of it comes from a quick Google search just now). But LANforge itself won't be directly installable via yum from the official Fedora repos, even when you do get them working again.

NAME

       find-repos-of-install - report which Yum repository a package was installed from

SYNOPSIS

       find-repos-of-install [options] package1 [package2...]

DESCRIPTION

       find-repos-of-install is a program which reports the Yum repository that a specified package was installed from.

OPTIONS

       --version
	      Report program version and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Display a help message, and then quit.

       --repoid=REPOID
	      Specify repo ids to query, can be specified multiple times (default is all enabled).

       --enablerepo=ENABLEREPOS
	      In  addition  to	the  default set, query the given additional repository, even if it is disabled in YUM configuration.  Can be used
	      multiple times.

       --disablerepo=DISABLEREPOS
	      Do not query the given repository, even if it is enabled in YUM configuration.  Can be used multiple times.

       --repofrompath=REPOID,PATH/URL
	      Specify a path or url to a repository (same path as in a baseurl) to add to the repositories for this query. This option can be used
	      multiple	times. If you want to view only the pkgs from this repository combine this with --repoid. The repoid for the repository is
	      specified by REPOID.

       -C, --cache
	      Tells repoquery to run entirely from YUM cache - does not download any metadata or update the cache. Queries in this mode  can  fail
	      or give partial/incorrect results if the cache isn't fully populated beforehand with eg "yum makecache".

       --tempcache
	      Use a temp dir for storing/accessing yum-cache.

       --sync2yumdb
	      Sync anything that is found to the yumdb, if available.
