Hi,
Second deficiency of this method is that you have to run 'createrepo' on every change otherwise YaST or 'zypper refresh' will not find any changes you made, ie. will not find new packages or complain about missing packages.
Aha. I presume the 2th defciency will be corrected? Not that it matters to me to do things more than nessesary, but just to know that progression will happen. ;-)
We all know that it is very inconvenient not being able to test pkgs, other than those in the original repos. I thank you for this info!
It is not as simple as you and Vahis suggest: * Installeert createrepo-0.4.10-32 [100%] monkey9@tribal-sfn2:~> cd /home/monkey9/RPM/ monkey9@tribal-sfn2:~/RPM> createrepo Error: Must specify a directory to index. createrepo [options] directory-of-packages Options: -u, --baseurl <url> = optional base url location for all files -o, --outputdir <dir> = optional directory to output to -x, --exclude = files globs to exclude, can be specified multiple times -q, --quiet = run quietly -n, --noepoch = don't add zero epochs for non-existent epochs (incompatible with yum and smart but required for systems with rpm < 4.2.1) -g, --groupfile <filename> to point to for group information (precreated) (<filename> relative to directory-of-packages) -v, --verbose = run verbosely -c, --cachedir <dir> = specify which dir to use for the checksum cache -C, --checkts = don't generate repo metadata, if their ctimes are newer than the rpm ctimes. -h, --help = show this help -V, --version = output version -p, --pretty = output xml files in pretty format. --update = update existing metadata (if present) -d, --database = generate the sqlite databases. monkey9@tribal-sfn2:~/RPM> createrepo -u Options Error: option -u requires argument. monkey9@tribal-sfn2:~/RPM> createrepo -u /home/monkey9/RPM/ Error: Must specify a directory to index. monkey9@tribal-sfn2:~/RPM> createrepo -u /home/monkey9/RPM Error: Must specify a directory to index. How to specify such a directory than? I do not mind to move the rpm's to another directory, or change the name... but this is not very obvious, if you ask me? - -- Have a nice day, M9.
