Software Repository
Isn't it confused with a Subversion/CVS repository? I am not sure if there is already this connotation.
Not that I know of.
Software Catalogue.
I imagine a description merely *about* software with this phrase but not a collection of installable RPM packages. Maybe it's only me. :)
What about this:
* Software depot * Software depository * Software reservoir * Software deposit * Software/Package storage (site) * Software loft ;)
Ok, I admit some may sound very strange for a native speaker. :)
Let's not invent complete new names. IMO currently there's "Installation Source" used by YaST and there's "Software Repository" used by other package managers. Introducing something new might be even more confusing, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
