@base

Post by xo)mora » 2019/04/23 13:34:49

Hi, please will you help me?

I executed:
# yum whatprovides 'perl(DBI)'

perl-DBI-1.627-4.el7.x86_64 : A database access API for perl
Repo : base
Matched from:
Provides : perl(DBI) = 1.627

perl-DBI-1.627-4.el7.x86_64 : A database access API for perl
Repo : @base
Matched from:
Provides : perl(DBI) = 1.627
# rpm -q perl-DBI
perl-DBI-1.627-4.el7.x86_64

Whats the meaning of Repo : base and Repo : @base?

Thanks a lot.
Regards

@base means the curently installed package is from the base repo.

From the yum man page:
OUTPUT
The format of the output of yum list is:
name.arch [epoch:]version-release repo or @installed-from-repo

Repo: base means it found your "provide" in a package in the repo "base".

Repo: @base means it found your provide in an installed package that came from the repo "base" when it was installed.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

ok, I understood

Repo: @base means it found your provide in an installed package that came from the repo "base" when it was installed.


It meaning that it was a complete installation that came from the repo "base"?

Then, Will I use the package without problems?, had I been install the package correctly ?
