NAME
yum-config-manager - manage yum configuration options and yum reposito-
ries
SYNOPSIS
yum-config-manager [options] [section ...]
DESCRIPTION
yum-config-manager is a program that can manage main yum configuration
options, toggle which repositories are enabled or disabled, and add new
repositories.
Unless --add-repo is used, the program will output the current configu-
ration of the selected sections, and optionally save it back to the
corresponding files.
By default, if no positional arguments are specified, the program will
select the [main] section and each enabled repository. You can over-
ride this by specifying your own list of sections as arguments (these
may also include disabled repositories). A section can either be main
or a repoid.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
Display a help message, and then quit.
--setopt=option=value
Set any config option in yum config or repo files. For options
in the global config just use: --setopt=option=value for repo
options use: --setopt=repoid.option=value. The latter form
accepts wildcards in repoid that will be expanded to the
selected sections. If repoid contains no wildcard, it will
automatically be selected; this is useful if you are addressing
a disabled repo, in which case you don't have to additionally
pass it as an argument.
--save Save the current options (useful with --setopt).
--enable
Enable the specified repos (automatically saves). To enable all
repositories run "yum-config-manager --enable \*".
--disable
Disable the specified repos (automatically saves). To disable
all repositories run "yum-config-manager --disable \*".
--add-repo=ADDREPO
Add (and enable) the repo from the specified file or url.
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
Yum-config-manager inherits all other options from yum. See the yum(8)
man page for more information.
EXAMPLES
Show the configuration of [main] and the repos foo and bar:
yum-config-manager main foo bar
Enable the repos foo and bar:
yum-config-manager --enable foo bar
Change a global option:
yum-config-manager --setopt=installonly_limit=5 --save
Change a repo option of the repo foo (works even if foo is disabled):
yum-config-manager --setopt=foo.skip_if_unavailable=1 --save
Change a repo option of more repos at once:
yum-config-manager --setopt=\*.skip_if_unavailable=1 --save foo
bar baz
Change a repo option of all the enabled repos:
yum-config-manager --setopt=\*.skip_if_unavailable=1 --save
Change a repo option of all the configured (that is, enabled and dis-
abled) repos:
yum-config-manager --setopt=\*.skip_if_unavailable=1 --save \*
