[zypp-devel] listing patches - consider only some repos?
by Martin Vidner 24 Aug '07

24 Aug '07

Hi, Cristian Rodriguez noticed that "zypper pch" refreshes all repos, not only those that contain patches (identifiable by repodata/patches.xml). I vaguely remember that we have some optimization for patch-repos already, done by Klaus or Duncan. What is it? -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[zypp-devel] "uninstallable"
by Martin Vidner 16 Aug '07

16 Aug '07

Hi, this is mostly for Schubi and Klaus I guess. Benji has pointed out that our usage of the term "uninstallable" is confusing: 'You use it to mean "Not installable" I think, but it sounds like "Can be uninstalled".' I have grepped the zypp sources and it looks that mostly we mean Not installable, but in QueueItemUninstall.cc:69 it seems to be the other meaning. Since it is visible to the user in the detailed resolver problem listings, please disambiguate it, probably after 10.3. -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

So you're saying that in all cases this means "not installable" rather than "removable" ? _ Benjamin Weber -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[zypp-devel] zypper se performance
by Benji Weber 13 Aug '07

13 Aug '07

Hi, "zypper se" in svn trunk is still taking quite a long time on my machine, anywhere between 10-20s with main repositories + packman. A simple java test app which queries the /var/cache/zypp/zypp.db database for the name,version,release,repository,arch takes between 1-4s in my tests. Does this lack of performance imply that all resolvables are being read into memory before performing the search, rather than just running the search on the SQLite database? If so, is there any reason for this? _ Benjamin Weber -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[zypp-devel] status - installing source packages from repos
by Jan Kupec 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

Zypper (0.8.9) has got a new 'source-install' command: zypper source-install (si) <package_name> ... It reads resolvables of all repos into a ResStore, then iterates through it ByName and ByKind<SrcPackage::kind> and looks for the latest version. Later i will add a possibility to specify version to install, and if it will be demanded then also an ability to install the dependencies along with the source package (through an option perhaps). Also i will add the --repo option to this command as well. Both the yum (after a fix) susetags parser seem to read the source packages correctly. Thanx to this (and the underlying libzypp stuff which Michael provided) 10.3 again has a way to install source packages directly from repos. There is one more thing to fix however: zypper search is currently operating on the ResPool (my beginner's fault i guess, i failed to realize the ResPool should be used for solving only, although Duncan tried to tell me :O). So i have to change it to work on ResStore so that it can be used to search and list also source packages.

[zypp-devel] DiskUsage calculation status (libzypp-3.13.12)
by Michael Andres 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

DiskUsage status (libzypp-3.13.12) - Provided ResObject interface: + /** + * \short Disk usage per directory + * A common attribute, although mostly packages require + * noticeable disk space. An e.g product could try to reserve + * a certain ammount of diskspace by providing DiskUsage data. + */ + const DiskUsage & diskusage() const; - Prepared classes zypp::repo::cached::PackageImpl zypp::repo::cached::SrcPackageImpl Both overload diskusage(), using a lazy initialized DiskUsage object. By now the object is empty. @Duncan: Please provide a ResolvableQuery to retrieve the du-data from the DB and store them in _diskusage (see #warning FILL DU DATA FROM DB). - Susetags DiskUsage parser is done, and feeds the data to the CacheStore via CacheStore::consumeDiskUsage. Provided CacheStore::consumeDiskUsage stores the data correctly and Duncan prrovides the ResolvableQuery, DiskUsage calculation should work again. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma(a)novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help(a)opensuse.org
