I noticed if I copy/paste the contents of utterramblings.repo provided above that the lines below [utterramblings] are all spaced one to the right from the left margin. This creates a series of errors when running yum. Removing those spaces allows it to function properly.

If you don’t know how to create a new file, you probably shouldn’t be managing your own VPS.

You need to login as root, type in cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ and then depending on what file editors you have installed, emacs utterramblings.repo (assuming you’re using emacs).

Hello, I just bought a new VPS and I know nothing about it. So please tell me how to create
/etc/yum.repos.d/utterramblings.repo file. Please mail it to webgivers(at)gmail(dot)com
