Hi all,

I would like to be able to save the rpm files that yum downloads.

Thanks to the following nugget from Google...

"I believe what you are looking for is
/var/cache/yum/<repo>/packages. This directory is expunged during
package cleanup."

...I now know where they are stored.

Two part question:

When is package cleanup performed?

Is there a way to prevent the expunging?

In /etc/yum.conf, change keepcache=0 to keepcache=1.

Thanks Mikkel,

Solves question 2.  I just now found that in "man yum.conf".

Would you know if there is a way to apply that to specific repos rather than all? Seems like a good candidate to move from yum.conf into the individual .repo files.
