Removing a repo from yum, and any torrent client recommendation?
0
I have been looking to install a uTorrent on Centos 7 following this guide , but gave up due to issues with OpenSSL. Then I tried installing Transmission, and the Transmission website led me to the link to this package, so I did :
rpm -ivh geekery-release-7-1.noarch.rpm
yum install transmission transmission-daemon
Then it gave me this error :
Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://geekery.epac.to/geekery/el7-mirrors
error was 12: Timeout on http://geekery.epac.to/geekery/el7-mirrors :
(28, 'Connection timed out after 30001 milliseconds')
One of the configured repositories failed (Unknown), and yum doesn't have enough
cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail.
There are a few ways to work "fix" this:
1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.
2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream.
This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is
supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution
release still work)
3.Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled
yum --disablerepo=<repoid> ...
4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default.
Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable
it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:
yum-config-manager --disable <repoid>
or
subscription-manager repos --disable=<repoid>
5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is
unavailable.Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs
most commands,so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum
will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though,
this is often a nice compromise:
yum-config-manager --save --setopt<repoid>.skip_if_unavailable=true
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: geekery.
So I tried
yum clean all
and did
yum -y upgrade
but it still gives me the same error about the repo.
My questions are :
At this point, I'd just like to remove the repo completely from Centos 7. How can I do that?
Is there any torrent client on Centos 7 I wouldn't have any trouble installing?
