| Summary: Fetch RPM packages from FTP servers which are newer than the ones installed on your system | |
freshrpms is a Perl5 script which fetches RPM packages from FTP servers which version numbers are higher than the ones installed on your system. freshrpms does not install any RPMs by itself but makes use of the package manager program to determine which RPM packages are currently installed. freshrpms uses a configuration file to accomplish its task which defines multiple FTP servers, directories to look for RPMs, local download directories and local archive directories for installed RPMs. It can also garbage collect local archived RPMs which are older than the currenly installed ones.
