I've just installed Fedora 17 and did an initial update:
yum update
yum update download speed is going way too slow. Download speed is 5 kbps.
Is there a way to tell yum to not pick such slow repositories?
Someone wrote a yum plugin which addresses this very issue that tells yum to use the fastest mirror available, here is how you install it:
su
enter password
yum install yum-plugin-fastestmirror
Then I did the:
yum update
And now the yum update is utilizing the full bandwidth of my download speed.

I am having a bit of a nightmare running up an Ubuntu distribution on an offline machine. Can anyone advise a distribution of Linux with G++ (or the contents of the build essential ubuntu package) as standard?
It is an absolute nightmare trying to download all the dependencies separately and I'm not getting on with Keryx at all. Many people have noted that build-essential package is available on the Ubuntu install CD but I can't find it on the 12.04 install CD using
sudo apt-get install build-essential
To those trying to close the question: This is programming related, I'm trying to get hold of g++ - comes under tools.

i have tshark installed in my debian linux which has version of 1.2.11. I want to update it to 1.8.0-1. I am trying it updated using
apt-get update
But, it still the latest version is not installed. Is this the way to update a package?
apt-get update (as sudo)
apt-get dist-upgrade
Hope this help.
Regards.
Calling
apt-get update
only updates the list with available packages.
You need to run
apt-get upgrade
after "apt-get update" to install the newest versions of all packages currently installed on the system.
See the man page for apt-get (you can also view it online e.g. http://linux.die.net/man/8/apt-get)

What is the Suse version of apt-get or yum?
How do I install software packages from the command line?
A fairly intense session of googling suggests that it may be yast or yast2, but no sensible HOWTO of listing and installing packages from the command line seems to exist. (maybe I am looking in the wrong place)
If I am an administrator for a remote Suse server, how do I install packages from the command line? (Not using a GUI and preferably installing from a central repo)
