    FEDORA 10 - yum repo config issue - cannot see extra packages

    i've been editing my repo files on /etc/yum.repo.d/ couple of days back to install packages from the Fedora DVD... after that i re-edit the files back to original

    what i did i simply disabled all fedora and rpmfusion mirrors and justed added a pointer to my DVD... simple work and simple restoration to original...

    but i've realise now YUM doesn't seem to read the repos at all now... no updates and extra uninstalled packages available....

    how can i fix this configuration or reconstruct or restore back to original config?

    Code:
    [root@blak ~]# yum repolist all
    Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
    repolist: 0
    [root@blak ~]# yum clean all
    Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
    Cleaning up Everything
    [root@blak ~]# rpm --rebuilddb
    [root@blak ~]# yum update
    Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
    Setting up Update Process
    No Packages marked for Update
    [root@blak ~]# yum repolist all
    Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
    repolist: 0

    Hi and Welcome !

    Have you enabled all repositories? Post the contents of fedora.repo file here.
    Post the output of this too :
    Code:
    su -
    yum repolist
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    adobe-linux-i386.repo
    rpmfusion-free-updates.repo
    fedora-rawhide.repo
    rpmfusion-free-updates.repo~
    fedora.repo

    Everything should work fine. I would suggest you to keep these repos disabled only.
    fedora-rawhide.repo
    rpmfusion-free-updates-testing.repo
    rpmfusion-nonfree-rawhide.repo
    fedora-updates-testing.repo
    rpmfusion-free-rawhide.repo
    rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing.repo
    Execute this
    Code:
    su -
    yum -y install htop
    Post exact error message here, if any.

    [root@blak yum.repo.d]# yum -y install htop
    Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
    Setting up Install Process
    Parsing package install arguments
    No package htop available.
    Nothing to do
    [root@blak yum.repo.d]#

    Remove # sign before baseurl lines.
    Code:

    i have tried that with no luck...

    i've gone through all my repo files and it's exactly the same as another machine where Yum runs perfectly fine which makes me think maybe it's not the repo files that has error...

    Is your machine behind proxy?
