https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=306759 Summary: zypper: incomplete information when a repository description is damaged Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: libzypp AssignedTo: kkaempf@novell.com ReportedBy: jdluhos@novell.com QAContact: kkaempf@novell.com Found By: --- When one of the repository description files in /etc/zypp/repos.d contains an ill-formed URL (e.g. because of a bug elsewhere), the "zypper refresh" command issues this error message: ------------------------------------- Error reading repositories: Url scheme requires a host component ------------------------------------- Note that there is no information about which file is damaged; a common user would be lost because he/she does not know how a correct repository description looks, so is not able to fix it even if he/she was willing to read repository files one by one. I would vote for adding a special emergency fix function, let's say "zypper repair", that would allow the user to disable or remove damaged repository descriptions, clear the database cache for case it is damaged, etc. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
