Hi,

I'd like to completely rewrite the $SUBJECT in installation and you have
an opportunity to say how do you think it could look and what could it
offer to do or how.

I've filed a blog entry about the $SUBJECT at

A solution worth to explore is to start using variables like $releasever
in the .repo files.

So repos with 11.1 would automaitcally be 11.2 afterwards. Of course
still there is the need to check that those repos are valid.

I remember having this requested once (basically having the openSUSE version as
a varibale in the URL).
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=264862

It got 'closed / fixed' for openSUSE 10.3... I never got around to test that
though.
