looks like the man page hasn't been updated. run: yum clean dbcache metadata headers I see. But what about 'yum clean all' not clean the cache either? Tobias I can't recreate yum clean all not purging the cache on yum 3.0.3. My mistake. I wrongly assumed yum clean all would clean everything including the stuff of disabled repos. Tobias |
Description of problem: Running 'yum clean cache' gives me a usage message as if I had a typo (like yum clean foo) Also, 'yum clean all' doesn't clean the cache either. So there is no way to clean the cache except with rm -rf /var/cache/yum/* Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-3.0.3-1.fc6 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum clean cache Actual results: tobsbox:~# yum clean cache Loading "installonlyn" plugin Error: invalid clean argument: 'cache' usage: yum [options] < grouplist, localinstall, groupinfo, localupdate, resolvedep, erase, deplist, groupremove, makecache, upgrade, provides, shell, install, whatprovides, groupinstall, update, groupupdate, info, search, check-update, list, remove, clean, grouperase > options: -h, --help show this help message and exit -t, --tolerant be tolerant of errors -C run entirely from cache, don't update cache -c [config file] config file location -R [minutes] maximum command wait time -d [debug level] debugging output level -e [error level] error output level -y answer yes for all questions --version show Yum version and exit --installroot=[path] set install root --enablerepo=[repo] enable one or more repositories (wildcards allowed) --disablerepo=[repo] disable one or more repositories (wildcards allowed) -x [package], --exclude=[package] exclude package(s) by name or glob --obsoletes enable obsoletes processing during updates --noplugins disable Yum plugins None Expected results: It cleans the cache ;P
