That's more efficient, and reduces the startup time of YaST (if such a feature is added to YaST).
Yes, that would be the best of both worlds. So anybody have the bugnumber? Otherwise I open a new feature request with the createrepo solution in it.
Your "run createrepo" proposal is a workaround for a missing feature.
I don't think so. createrepo is the appropriate tool to manage a repository.
I don't know whether zypp is currently capable of using a "naked" directory of RPMs as an installation source. If it doesn't, I think that just using createrepo is a better solution than adding more complexity to zypp.
I don't use zypp. I am an old fashioned YaST users. Have been using createrepo since I leared about it. Can't get much easier then using that program. :-) In the meantime, how could I edit /usr/share/YaST2/clients/sw_single.ycp (At least I asume that is the file I must edit) to run createrepo when called? -- Listen do you hear them drawing near in their search for the sinners? Feeding on the power of our fear and the evil within us. Incarnation of Satan's creation of all that we dread.
