Hi,
thanks for your answer. It made me investigating again and now I found the reason and the issue is solved to my satisfaction. Reposync uses the default yum.conf if no other specified and in there ,sudo was excluded.
exclude=sudo*
So to avoid reposync to exclude sudo you can remove that config option or specify another custom yum.conf with the -c|--config parameter of reposync.
Thx again
Have fun...
Marcel

Hi Marcel,
All sudo packages are part of AIX YUM repository
# yum list \*sudo\*
Available Packages
sudo.ppc 1.9.5p2-1 AIX_Toolbox
sudo_ids.ppc 1.9.5p2-1 AIX_Toolbox
sudo_noldap.ppc 1.9.5p2-1 AIX_Toolbox
Please could you verify if sudo is part of your local YUM repository ?

Hi guys
I have a setup very similar to Configuring YUM and creating local repositories on IBM AIX but using reposync -d ( to remove local packages not part of the repo )
However, I figured out that sudo seems not to be part of the repository any more though available from the toolbox directory. http://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/RPMS/ppc
My yum repo config pointing to this URL does not find it either. ( yum clean all done )
Has it been somehow excluded from the online repository for any reason or could I miss anything here?
Thx for any help/ideas
Have fun...
Marcel
