Chapter 3. Red Hat Update Agent Configuration Tool 31
Figure 3-2. Retrieval/Installation Settings
The following package retrieval options can be selected (see Figure 3-2):
•
Do not install packages after retrieval
— download selected RPM packages to desired directory
and ignore the installation preferences
•
Do not display packages when local configuration file has been modified — if the configuration
file has been modified for a package such as
apache
or
squid
, do not display them in the list of
available packages. This option is useful if you are installing custom RPM packages on your system
and you do not want them updated or reverted to the default Red Hat Linux packages.
•
Retrieve source RPM along with binary package — download both the source (
*.src.rpm
)
and the binary (
*.[architecture].rpm
) files
The following installation options are configurable (see Figure 3-2):
•
After installation, keep binary packages on disk — save binary packages in desired directory
instead of deleting them after installation
•
Use GPG to verify package integrity
— before installing the packages, verify Red Hat’s GPG
signature (highly recommended for security reasons)
The following additional options are configurable from this tab:
•
Override version stored in System Profile
— override the Red Hat Linux version in your System
Profile
•
Package storage directory
— change the directory where packages are downloaded; the default
location is
/var/spool/up2date

including wild cards (*) in the
Add new
text field under in the
