Little Things Doth Crabby Make – Part XXII. It’s All About Permissions, Dummy. I Mean yum(8).

Published August 4, 2017 oracle 1 Comment

Good grief. This is short and sweet, I know, but this installment in the Little Things Doth Crabby Make series is just that–short and sweet. Or, well, maybe short and sour?

Not root? Ok, yum(8), spew out a bunch of silliness at me. Thanks.

Sometimes, little things doth, well, crabby make!

Hey, yum(8), That is Ridiculous User Feedback

    Seems like something’s wrong with the Python install (YUM is a python script).
    I tried the same on CentOS 7.3 and this is what I got:

    [oracle@outrun02 ~](DEMO) $ yum install fio
    Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, versionlock
    You need to be root to perform this command.
    [oracle@outrun02 ~](DEMO) $
