NAME

7       ries

SYNOPSIS

10       yum-config-manager [options] [section ...]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       yum-config-manager is a program that can manage main yum  configuration
14       options, toggle which repositories are enabled or disabled, and add new
15       repositories.
16
17       Unless --add-repo is used, the program will output the current configu‐
18       ration  of  the  selected  sections, and optionally save it back to the
19       corresponding files.
20
21       By default, if no positional arguments are specified, the program  will
22       select  the  [main] section and each enabled repository.  You can over‐
23       ride this by specifying your own list of sections as  arguments  (these
24       may  also include disabled repositories).  A section can either be main
25       or a repoid.
26

OPTIONS

28       -h, --help
29              Display a help message, and then quit.
30
31       --setopt=option=value
32              Set any config option in yum config or repo files.  For  options
33              in  the  global  config just use: --setopt=option=value for repo
34              options  use:  --setopt=repoid.option=value.   The  latter  form
35              accepts  wildcards  in  repoid  that  will  be  expanded  to the
36              selected sections.  If repoid  contains  no  wildcard,  it  will
37              automatically  be selected; this is useful if you are addressing
38              a disabled repo, in which case you don't  have  to  additionally
39              pass it as an argument.
40
41       --save Save the current options (useful with --setopt).
42
43       --enable
44              Enable  the specified repos (automatically saves). To enable all
45              repositories run "yum-config-manager --enable \*".
46
47       --disable
48              Disable the specified repos (automatically  saves).  To  disable
49              all repositories run "yum-config-manager --disable \*".
50
51       --add-repo=ADDREPO
52              Add (and enable) the repo from the specified file or url.
53

ADDITIONAL OPTIONS

55       Yum-config-manager  inherits all other options from yum. See the yum(8)
56       man page for more information.
