Yum donwload location?

[yahya2006]

Hello

Please anyone can tell me when we use : "yum install package_name " where the packages goes on the filesystem. To take them and reinstall them on a non-internet pc.

Hello:
I may be wrong, however, I think that most of the rpms are designed to be removed once installed ... driven by the spec file.
Hopefully someone will correct me if I am mistaken.
If you wish to download the rpms via yum you can install yum-utils and
then use yumdownloader and direct the package(s) to a local directory. This will not install them it just downloads the packages.
There is more information located here:

Edit:
Actually u-noneinc-s has a much better solution here for you:

Confirmed. Just edited /etc/yum.conf to keepCACHE=1 and did the same for yumex. Did an update of 4 packages from updates repo and 4 packages remain in /var/cache/yum/updates/packages.
