How To List The Enabled/Active Repositories In Linux
There are many ways to list enabled repositories in Linux.
Here we are going to show you the easy methods to list active repositories.
It will helps you to know what are the repositories enabled on your system.
Once you have this information in handy then you can add any repositories that you want if it’s not already enabled.
Say for example, if you would like to enable epel repository then you need to check whether the epel repository is enabled or not. In this case this tutorial would help you.
What Is Repository?
A software repository is a central place which stores the software packages for the particular application.
All the Linux distributions are maintaining their own repositories and they allow users to retrieve and install packages on their machine.
Each vendor offered a unique package management tool to manage their repositories such as search, install, update, upgrade, remove, etc.
Most of the Linux distributions comes as freeware except RHEL and SUSE. To access their repositories you need to buy a subscriptions.

How To List The Enabled Repositories on RHEL/CentOS
RHEL & CentOS systems are using RPM packages hence we can use the Yum Package Manager to get this information.
YUM stands for Yellowdog Updater, Modified is an open-source command-line front-end package-management utility for RPM based systems such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and CentOS.
Yum is the primary tool for getting, installing, deleting, querying, and managing RPM packages from distribution repositories, as well as other third-party repositories.

RHEL based systems are mainly offering the below three major repositories. These repository will be enabled by default.
base:It’s containing all the core packages and base packages.extras:It provides additional functionality to CentOS without breaking upstream compatibility or updating base components. It is an upstream repository, as well as additional CentOS packages.updates:It’s offering bug fixed packages, Security packages and Enhancement packages.

How To List The Enabled Repositories on Fedora
DNF stands for Dandified yum. We can tell DNF, the next generation of yum package manager (Fork of Yum) using hawkey/libsolv library for backend. Aleš Kozumplík started working on DNF since Fedora 18 and its implemented/launched in Fedora 22 finally.
Dnf command is used to install, update, search & remove packages on Fedora 22 and later system. It automatically resolve dependencies and make it smooth package installation without any trouble.
Yum replaced by DNF due to several long-term problems in Yum which was not solved. Asked why ? he did not patches the Yum issues. Aleš Kozumplík explains that patching was technically hard and YUM team wont accept the changes immediately and other major critical, YUM is 56K lines but DNF is 29K lies. So, there is no option for further development, except to fork.

How To List The Enabled Repositories on Debian/Ubuntu
Debian based systems are using APT/APT-GET package manager hence we can use the APT/APT-GET Package Manager to get this information.
APT stands for Advanced Packaging Tool (APT) which is replacement for apt-get, like how DNF came to picture instead of YUM. It’s feature rich command-line tools with included all the futures in one command (APT) such as apt-cache, apt-search, dpkg, apt-cdrom, apt-config, apt-key, etc..,. and several other unique features. For example we can easily install .dpkg packages through APT but we can’t do through Apt-Get similar more features are included into APT command. APT-GET replaced by APT Due to lock of futures missing in apt-get which was not solved.
Apt-Get stands for Advanced Packaging Tool (APT). apg-get is a powerful command-line tool which is used to automatically download and install new software packages, upgrade existing software packages, update the package list index, and to upgrade the entire Debian based systems.

How To List The Enabled Repositories on ArchLinux
Arch Linux based systems are using pacman package manager hence we can use the pacman Package Manager to get this information.
pacman stands for package manager utility (pacman). pacman is a command-line utility to install, build, remove and manage Arch Linux packages. pacman uses libalpm (Arch Linux Package Management (ALPM) library) as a back-end to perform all the actions.

How To List The Enabled Repositories on Linux using INXI Utility
inxi is a nifty tool to check hardware information on Linux and offers wide range of option to get all the hardware information on Linux system that i never found in any other utility which are available in Linux. It was forked from the ancient and mindbendingly perverse yet ingenius infobash, by locsmif.
inxi is a script that quickly shows system hardware, CPU, drivers, Xorg, Desktop, Kernel, GCC version(s), Processes, RAM usage, and a wide variety of other useful information, also used for forum technical support & debugging tool.
Additionally this utility will display all the distribution repository data information such as RHEL, CentOS, Fedora, Debain, Ubuntu, LinuxMint, ArchLinux, openSUSE, Manjaro, etc.,
