Configuration - RPM Fusion extra repo on fedora

Configuration - RPM Fusion: "Installing Free and Nonfree Repositories

We have two separate software repositories:

*

free for Open Source Software (as defined by the Fedora Licensing Guidelines) which the Fedora project cannot ship due to other reasons
*

nonfree for redistributable software that is not Open Source Software (as defined by the Fedora Licensing Guidelines); this includes software with publicly available source-code that has 'no commercial use'-like restrictions

Installation can be done either using a web browser, or via the command line.

Graphical Setup via Firefox web browser

1.

First enable access to the free repository. For users of gpk (gnome package kit) or kpackagekit in Fedora that is easy and basically only one step: just click on one of the following files, depending on what distribution you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking Enter a few times (¹):
*

RPM Fusion free for Fedora 10 and 11
*

RPM Fusion free for Fedora Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide, RC, Snapshot aka. what will become Fedora 12
*

RPM Fusion free for RHEL5 or compatible like CentOS
2.

Once that succeeds, you can enable access to the nonfree repositories by clicking on one of the following files, depending on what distribution you use and then follow the default options that Firefox and Package Kit offer by clicking Enter a few times(¹):
*

RPM Fusion nonfree for Fedora 10 and 11
*

RPM Fusion nonfree for Fedora Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide, RC, Snapshot aka. what will become Fedora 12
*

RPM Fusion nonfree for RHEL5 or compatible like CentOS

(¹) Once you clicked on above link Firefox will ask you how to Open the file. Here you can simply use the default and open the file with the default application Package Installer. Then Firefox will call Package Kit, which asks Do you want to install this file ?. Click OK to begin install; Package Kit then will complain about a Missing security signature; once you tell Package Kit to install the package nevertheless it will move on and install it. That's all.

Command Line Setup using rpm

To enable access to both the free and the nonfree repository use the following command:

*

*

Fedora Alpha, Beta, Preview, Rawhide, RC, Snapshot aka. what will become Fedora 12:
