Hi,

in order to support repository index services (NU type), we need to 
introduce a function returning an identifier of the OS. Zypp will use 
this to filter corresponding repositories from the repo index.

Currently we use OSName-arch (e.g. sles-10-x86_64). No problem to get 
the arch, but how to get the OSName? Do we store this somewhere?

As for the interface, i suggest to place the functions to ZConfig:

/** autodetected OS Id */
ZConfig::defaultSystemId();

/** OS Id zypp uses */
ZConfig::SystemId();

/** Override the zypp OS Id. */
void setSystemId( const std::string sysname_r, const Arch & arch_r );

/** Reset the zypp OS Id to the default. */
void resetSystemId();


maybe also(?)

ZConfig::defaultSystemName();
ZConfig::SystemName();
...


cheers,
jano
