About this document
Linux RPM and YUM Package Management by Iulian Calin is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses using RPM and YUM to install and manage software packages on a Linux system. It describes using RPM to manually install MySQL, but having to resolve dependencies by installing additional packages like mysqlclient, perl-DBI, and perl-DBD-MySQL. It then demonstrates using YUM, which handles dependencies automatically, to install MySQL Server with one command. The document provides an example YUM configuration and recommends verifying packages from trusted repositories.
