Hello,

Normally yum comes installed by default with a FC6 install.

You can check to see if it is installed by typing "rpm -qa | grep yum".

If it is not installed you will need to download the rpm from a fedora mirror and manually install it using "rpm -Uvh yum.<version>.rpm".

Hope that helps.

Hi chrisl,

thank you for your reply. Have taken the right package and there dependencies now and installed it. Before i had problems with these dependencies and i was not able to install it well.

I added a routine to my configuration script that will repair yum on broken VPS's. You can run it with the following:

wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic.sh |sh
