  • 1.  How do I create dnf repositories in a closed environment?

    Posted Fri June 07, 2024 06:09 PM

    Hi -

    I am trying to upgrade cLamAV-102 TO ClamAV-103 Since I am in a closed env, all code has to be manually uploaded. We are running AIX7.2. I have a sort of working dnf. dnf works but dnf config-manager spews out 20 lines of noise that looks like an incomplete python3 configuration. it complained about /opt/freeware/lib/python3.9/site-packages/libdnf/_common_types.so, which must be missing from that dir.

    I started with yum3 that had to go to dnf because. I would like to put new code in a separate repository. the existing repo has  [cloudinit] repo. i tried to ad a [AIX_toolbax_72] by adding a dir ../AIX_toolbox_72/bunch_of.rpm files but as soon as I enable it dnf repolist all crashes.

    is there an icantation i need?

    Thanks

    Brendan

    Check in the Blogs of this group. There's an article in there on how to set up a DNF repo in an air-gapped environment for local use.

    To publish it on your internal network, you just have to install apache and point it to the directory. Clients then need to have a dnf.conf that points to the correct internal URL.
