Q. How can I add a package group using up2date command?
A. Update Agent provides a complete system for updating the RPM packages installed on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system. Both command line and graphical interfaces are included.
Task: Install group package
For example install all Development Tools package i.e. gcc c/c++ compiler and related libs:
Login as root and type the following command:
# up2date -i "@ Development Tools"
Task: List group packages
# up2date --show-groups | more
Read man page of up2date for more information. Please note that above command only works with RHEL version 4.0.
