in case this helps here is what the directory structure looks like for the 
update source:

Subject: [opensuse-autoinstall] steps to create an update source
 

Hi,

I have a few custom built RPMs that we would like to install on our SLES 11 and 
opensuse 11.1 machines via autoyast.  I looked around the autoyast website and 
a few other lists and such and cant' quite get all the parts right to do this. 
For now I am simply trying to create the update source then I go to a SLES 11 
machine and try to add that as a "Software Repository" just to test if the 
update source works.  When I do this I get this error message:

"No repository index in content file"

Here are the steps I followed to create the update source:

> > create_update_source.sh dist/
> > mkdir -p dist/updates/suse/x86_64
> > cp *.rpm dist/updates/suse/x86_64/
> > cd dist/updates/suse/
> > create_package_descr -x setup/descr/EXTRA_PROV
> > cd setup/descr/
> > create_directory.yast .
> > create_md5sums .


last I edit the "dist/updates/content" file to look like this:

> > cat dist/updates/content 
VENDOR          SuSE Linux AG
CREATIONDATE    20090329125112
VERSION         1
LABEL           My Software


Any ideas as to what I am missing in the creating of the update source that 
might cause the "No repository index in content file" error message?

Thanks
Rene
