Hi Steve,
so if I put in /etc/yum.conf an entry like:
[lcg]
name=I don't know
baseurl=http://grid-deployment.web.cern.ch/grid-deployment/gis/apt/LCG-2_3_0/en/i386/RPMS.lcg_sl3/
and then run
yum install lcg-UI
it correctly picks lcg-UI.... metapackage and installs all is needed? It
doesn't matter that it is an apt repo?
thanks
cheers
