You overlooked the second "*". You test first in your script, if the name starts with SUSE and ends with iso (btw, you could join the two greps to a single grep "^SUSE.*iso$"), so this is true for sure. I just add, that there is _somewhere_ in between "CD1", which is true for all beta CD sets I downloaded. The syntax is due to the difference between shell globbing and regex.
Ok. I will be more precice. Not all iso's have a name with CD1 in them.
The problems it would cause and the solution will be larger then the benefits.
Which problems are you talking about? The benefits would be the unique scheme for CDs and DVD and also the name would include the architecture.
iso's that are named something else then CD1. Two iso's named CD1 (you can add your own CD as well, if you like) are two things that come to mind. For these exceptions, I would have to find solutions and also I need to find solutions for all other exceptions that might be out there. And then naturaly the exceptions I did NOT think about. Using the naming as I do now is a standard, so unless the standard changes, I don't need to do anything.
I think the smilie in the end just shows, that this is no feature, but laziness. As already noted, it is called 10.1 beta all over newer announcements on opensuse.org.
I don't believe it is laziness. I believe it is ancient history and the way they number teir versions. 10.1.0 is production. All before that is not yet 10.1 and is numberd lower, or whatever. :-)
It's your script, so the decision is up to you. I already changed mine, whoever reads here can decide for himself, no problem at all. :-)
