Understanding Package UpdatesΒΆ
A more complete example for adding CentOS is provided below. You will notice the following optional information has been added:
updateTo
: This is the date up until which the packages should be updatedprofile
: The OS profile. The options are listed under os list
{
"os" : {
"name" : "CentOS",
"version" : "6.4",
"arch" : "x86_64",
"updateTo" : "01-30-2014",
"profile" : "Minimal",
"pkgs" : [ {
"name" : "iotop"
},
{
"name" : "httpd",
"version" : "2.2.15",
"release" : "28.el6.centos",
"arch" : "x86_64"
}]
}
}
In the example above you can see that for the package httpd a specific version and release are specified. When no version or release is specified, the latest release is used.
