I'm trying to reinstall util-linux-ng but yum says its not available.
I tried just util-linux with a similar story.
(from base - not available)
Is this me trying do something I shouldn't or something else?
thanks
re-install util-linux-ng
Re: re-install util-linux-ng
The package is in the CentOS 6 base repo. Is that enabled?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Re: re-install util-linux-ng
Hi Trevor
Base seems to be installed ok - I just did a re-install of sed which went fine.
What I did just notice is that I have util-linux-ng installed and originally was
trying to re-install that.
Then I read somewhere that it had been replaced with uti-linux (ie '-ng' not required)
so I tried that.
Having just tried downloading both yum tells me I have util-linux-ng installed
regardless of which of the two I try to download and that either isn't available in
base.
Is there a simple way for me to re-install the base to try again?
Thats all I can do I think. (remembering to clean cache etc - which I've tried including with rm)
I'm not sure how to re-install base from scratch.
(But then - why would sed re-install correctly?)
thanks

What is the output from
Code: Select all
yum repolist
yum --noplugins --showduplicates list util-linux-ng
