Lineox™ Enterprise Linux 2.1 updates
Lineox provides updated packages for Lineox™ Enterprise Linux 2.1
with an automated system which offers new packages usually in less than 12 hours
after security, feature enhancement or bug fix packages have been released as source code.
If multiple packages are released simultaneously or packages take a long time to compile
(like the Linux kernel), it will take longer for Lineox to release binary packages.
You can get automated announcements about new updated packages by
joining a mailing list at
http://www.raimokoski.com/mailman/listinfo/lel21_update_announce.
Mailing list membership will always be free. This mailing list
will also receive all announcements about changes and planned changes
in the service.
Updated packages are available from
http://www.raimokoski.com/lineox/updates/lel21/
if you have purchased support license and have valid user name and password.
60 days old updated packages are available from
http://www.raimokoski.com/lineox/3.0/updates/.
The packages can also be updated using the apt-get package manager. Just add the following lines to
/etc/apt/sources.list:
rpm http://user:password@www.raimokoski.com/ lineox/updates/lel21/i386 updates
rpm-src http://user:password@www.raimokoski.com/ lineox/updates/lel21/i386 updates
For older than 60 days updated packages add the following lines:
rpm http://www.raimokoski.com/ lineox/2.1/updates/i386 updates
rpm-src http://www.raimokoski.com/ lineox/2.1/updates/i386 updates
If you would like to use yum, add the following lines to your /etc/yum.conf file:
[base]
name=Lineox Enterprise Linux 2.1 - $basearch - Base
baseurl=http://www.raimokoski.com/lineox/2.1/$basearch/Lineox/RPMS
gpgcheck=1
[updates]
name=Lineox Enterprise Linux 2.1 - $basearch - Updates
baseurl=http://www.raimokoski.com/lineox/2.1/updates/$basearch/RPMS
gpgcheck=1
[paid updates]
name=Lineox Enterprise Linux 2.1 - $basearch - Updates
baseurl=http://user:password@www.raimokoski.com/lineox/updates/lel21/$basearch/RPMS
gpgcheck=1
Replace user:password with username and password you got from Lineox in all of the listings above.
Your third option is to use up2date. Add the following lines to your /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file:
### Lineox Enterprise Linux 2.1.x channels
yum LEL21 http://www.raimokoski.com/lineox/2.1/i386/Lineox/RPMS
yum LEL21-Updates http://www.raimokoski.com/lineox/2.1/updates/i386/RPMS
You can use up2date only to get free updates because up2date can't handle user:password,
so it is currently unusable with paid downloads.
All the packages will be signed by Lineox, but the automatic system doesn't sign them,
they are signed by a human after they have been verified to install properly. Before you can
check the signature, you must import the GPG signature using command "rpm --import http://www.lineox.com/RPM-GPG-KEY".
You can find the RPM-GPG-KEY file from the root directory of the (first) Lineox Linux DVD/CD-ROM or you
can download it. After installing it, you can check the signature of
an rpm package with command "rpm -K rpm-package.rpm".
