indeed

CC: (none) => thierry.vignaud, tmb
Source RPM: util-linux => util-linux urpmi

Comment 2 Thierry Vignaud 2012-12-23 09:11:15 CET 
RTFM (man su is your friend)
urpmi is not in user path, you need to run su -c /sbin/urpmi or su -l urpmi

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID
Source RPM: util-linux urpmi => (none)

Comment 3 Fallstar 2012-12-23 11:11:56 CET 
My bad, I should have read the manual.
But it's kinda confusing for noobies like me that urpmi is not in /bin, like it used to be on Mageia 1 and 2, why did you changed that ?
Comment 4 Sander Lepik 2012-12-23 11:15:15 CET 
# which urpmi
/usr/sbin/urpmi

This is Mageia 2. AFAIK urpmi has never been in /bin.

Then I guess I fucked something up on both my computersâ¦
Nevermind, thank you all anyway.:)
