https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=418440 Summary: yast repostitory view, editor doesn`t apply repo name changes on all places Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bgerz@gmx.net QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer How to find the problem: 1) rename a repository name(not path or url) and look in /etc/zypp/repos.d YaST uses the repository name AS FILENAME and as value inside this file, but the YaST Repository Editor does only change the value. Example with file: /etc/zypp/repos.d/test_repository_name_change.repo <==== It contains the new value now: [test_repository_name_change] name=test_repository_name_change__FAILED <==== enabled=1 autorefresh=1 baseurl=http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/repositories/Virtualization%3a/Qemu/openSUS... path=/ type=rpm-md keeppackages=0 2) I`ve used YaST with active zypper caching in /var/cache/zypp/packages a)Activate zypper cache by: zypper mr -kt b)Install a package by using yast or zypper c)Rename the repository name by yast repository editor (embedded in software installer) d)Activate caching for the new name(for zypper it`s a new repository): zypper mr -kt (the output does not show the new repo name, but the old name) e)remove the package rpm from cache directory d)re-install the same or other package(now with new repository name (I`ve used "test_repository_name_change__FAILED", old name was "test_repository_name_change". and look, what was done on the cache directory /var/cache/zypp/packages, which does also use the subdirectory naming from yast repository name editor.

I have not in mind what was going on after editing the download path for an given repository name :-( 'grep' and 'find' do help to find such naming problems, if you build automatic testing tools for yast development, but you now. So, please do some code cleaning if anybody get the time :-) - I found it out because I use zypper cache to create my own repository (one repo for all packages I need). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
