Hi, when configuring the Apache archive for Cassandra RPMs, with file "/etc/yum.repos.d/cassandra-oss.repo": [cassandra-oss] name=Cassandra OSS RPM baseurl=https://archive.apache.org/dist/cassandra/redhat/40x failovermethod=priority enabled=1 Older package versions (non-latest) are not found in the repodata nor installable. While older packages are present in the repository: https://archive.apache.org/dist/cassandra/redhat/40x/
$ yum info cassandra --show-duplicates --disableplugin=versionlock Loaded plugins: ovl, priorities, product-id, search-disabled-repos 148 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Available Packages Name : cassandra Arch : noarch Version : 4.0.3 Release : 1 Size : 45 M Repo : cassandra-oss-artifactory Summary : Cassandra is a highly scalable, eventually consistent, distributed, structured key-value store. URL : http://cassandra.apache.org/ License : Apache Software License 2.0 Description : Cassandra is a distributed (peer-to-peer) system for the management and storage of structured data. I assume the repodata is also mirrored from the main repository: https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/redhat/40x/ And thus, the file list does not contain the other packages: https://archive.apache.org/dist/cassandra/redhat/40x/repodata/repomd.xml Primary file list: $ zgrep 'ver=' ece31517ddeb401b0eaff53c83ecabd59f4862df38efffe436b68d0781516e6d-primary.xml.gz -1- <version epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <rpm:entry name="cassandra" flags="EQ" epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <rpm:entry name="python(abi)" flags="GE" epoch="0" ver="3.6"/> <rpm:entry name="jre" flags="GE" epoch="0" ver="1.8.0"/> <version epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <rpm:entry name="ant-junit" flags="GE" epoch="0" ver="1.9"/> <rpm:entry name="ant" flags="GE" epoch="0" ver="1.9"/> <version epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <rpm:entry name="cassandra-tools" flags="EQ" epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <rpm:entry name="cassandra" flags="EQ" epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> Other file list: $ zgrep 'ver=' 4c42c3645f88f578a7e38b34b516313de36d1ab223bfaced8b757ba58bf2c32d-other.xml.gz <version epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <version epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> <version epoch="0" ver="4.0.3" rel="1"/> I would assume older available versions are part of the repodata and thus installable.
