[New: openFATE 314641] prevent newbies from adding wrong repos
Feature added by: Walter Schlueter (Trekkie00) Feature #314641, revision 1 Title: prevent newbies from adding wrong repos openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Walter Schlueter (trekkie00) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: When thinking of a way how to prevent new users to add dangerous repos (wrong version or factory) it came to my mind that it would be quite easy to do this. When adding the repo it should be easy to search alias, name and url for words which do not correspond with the version currently in use. For example for openSUSE 12.2 these expressions could be 11.4, 12.1, factory and so on. To allow advanced users to use these repos one could add an option where this flag can be changed. For example a parameter called allow_blacklist. Whether the value of this parameter ist set to 0 or 1 one is allowed to add these repos or not. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/314641
