[zypp-devel] zypper install foo.rpm now possible (+ rpm file cache zypper/zypp question)
Hi, i've just finished the support for installation of plain rpm files with zypper (will submitted soon in zypper 0.9.5). It works like this: zypper checks the arguments given to the install command and looks for rpm files among them. If any rpms are found, they are downloaded into one directory and the directory is temporarily added as a plaindir repository. The rpms listed in arguments are ten installed by capability name=version-release fetched from the rpm header. (i'll add more detailed description to the man page soon). example: $ zypper install ~/downloads/foo.rpm http://some.site/path/to/bar.rpm What i'm thinking about now is whether to use a TmpDir, a zypper specific cache dir (e.g. /var/cache/zypper/RPMS) or the future libzypp's rpm file cache dir (in which case the functionality should be provided through libzypp's API together with signature checking, and other security measures) to download the rpms into. Suggestions? Cheers, Jano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
JFYI, using current trunk, the $SUBJECT feature doesn't work using the (now default) SAT solver, but using ZYPP_RC_SOLVER=1 helps. Schubi, can you look into that eventually? j. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
