hi,

i'm trying to exclude install/update by Arch.

package-name wildcards work fine.  e.g., adding

        *32bit*

to

        /etc/zypp/locks

works as expected.

afaict, there's no manpage mention of arch/locks.

trying,

        *i586*

is simply ignored.

@irc pointed me to a wiki-page

        http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp/Locksfile

which is rather a 'challenge' :-/

but, i do see reference to "solvable attributes",

        solvable attributes
                this attributes specifies attributes of object. Empty value mean
that it restrict global_string on this value.

and arch-specific,

        solvable_sourcearch
        update_collection_arch

iiuc, e.g. to exlcude i586 arch, i add,

        solvable_sourcearch:i586
        update_collection_arch:i586

to locks?

can someone please verify/clarify the correct usage for
excluding-by-arch, and the difference between "solvable_sourcearch" &
"update_collection_arch"

thanks!
