In configuring my Patch Management System-- Pakiti (http://pakiti.sourceforge.net/), I need to specify the URL for Fedora based OS.
What would be the URL to put the full path to the file which contains the list of packages provided by the repository? For example the Scientific Linux has URL to full path: http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/cern/slc54/x86_64/yum/os/repodata/primary.xml.gz
This is not a security question, even if you are using the answer for some kind of security update tracking.
To answer your question, look at the yum repo files in the fedora-release package (on a Fedora system or download the desired version manually from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=9) and append repodata/primary.xml.gz to the basedir entries.
