I needed to install gdb quickly on my CentOS 7 VM box, but it failed. yum command could not find appropriate repository for download and installation. The same I had before with different application.
Of course it was possible to perform all installation steps manually: find location of appropriate rpm or source files and rebuild, however I was lazy to do it. What I had before:
|
# yum install gdb Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * epel: mirror.oss.ou.edu * epel-debuginfo: mirror.oss.ou.edu * epel-source: mirror.oss.ou.edu * epel-testing-debuginfo: mirror.oss.ou.edu No package gdb available. Error: Nothing to do |
I opened /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo in text and changed all “enabled=0” to “enabled=1”.
And what I got after these changes:

gdb was installed successfully. And pay attention that list of repositories used by yum was changed.
