A question about using YUM

[Nguyen Danh Hieu]

Thanks for your reply. Each time when I try to install some programs ( from
source or rpm)  It happended that the package requires another, and then the
another requires others package, library... and so on.
Because of that I want to download every lib,rpm or sources ( that appeares
on LAN ) to my harddisk and force yum to find and fetch dependencies from
the folders. What you said,as I understand,  that I have to  build my own
repository. How to do that?
