The AMIGA, great or flop. Your memories...

Hi everybody...

Anyone who sees posts from me see the word AMIGA on my machines' terminal prompts.

AMINET is the oldest Internet SW repository and currently holds 82,800+ freely available SW packages.

About Aminet - AminetWiki

I am a member of LAG, (Linclonshire Amiga Group), in the UK and meet 6 times a year.
I still code for the old tub as do many, many others, and have done loads of uploads, one being of professional quality and used at where I worked before retiring. Most of the apps were related to electronic measuring equipment, yeah you guessed it one was a real oscilloscope of which the front end GUI is on this site somewhere...

If you have ever owned an AMIGA, which BTW the CLI has a subset of UNIX terminal escape codes, what are your fond or hated memories of the platform.

And last but not least my A1200 has been powered up. (except for involuntary power cuts etc), since 1992. The only failure so far is the external 5.25 inch Floppy Drive...

I look forwards to your memories...

Ah, the AMIGA, (another poem I wrote in 2005).

show-changed-rco - show changes in an RPM package SYNOPSIS
show-changed-rco [options] DESCRIPTION
show-changed-rco gives a compact description of the changes to a packages Requires, Conflicts and Obsoletes data from the installed (or old) to a specified rpm file. OPTIONS
-h, --help show this help message and exit -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". -c <config file>, --config=<config file> Use alternative config file (default is /etc/yum.conf). --repoid=<repo> Specify which repository to query. Using this option disables all repositories not explicitly enabled with --repoid option (can be used multiple times). By default repoquery uses whatever repositories are enabled in YUM configuration. --enablerepo=<repo> 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=<repo> 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>. --old-packages=<pkg> Explicitly list the valid old packages to match the new packages against. --ignore-arch Ignore arch. so you can compare foo-2.i686 to foo-1.x86_64. --skip-new Only give output for packages which we've found an old package for.
