Quick question while on the subject.
I don't see a questionmark, so I can only guess at what the answer will be
As I have the factory tree downloaded and I know I can add additional rpm packages will the makeSUSEdvd take duplicate RPM's from different sources into account.
It does not take duplicate RPMs into account. It simply copies the content of the directory that you mention into the suse directory. What I do is use /usr/src/packages/RPMS as default and here as example: houghi@penne : tree -d /usr/src/packages/RPMS/ /usr/src/packages/RPMS/ |-- athlon |-- i386 |-- i486 |-- i586 |-- i686 `-- noarch Place the RPM's in those directories. If they are duplicate, they should be overwritten. I also do a `createrepo /usr/src/packages/RPMS/` so I also have the createrepo directory and data on my DVD.
What I am looking to do is create one source on my local network to install from that has all of the packages including the extra packages in the factory tree and the non-oss stuff and really don't want to end up with dups.
As they should be overwritten, you can just use the `makeSUSEdvd -i -d /srv/www/htdocs/suse10.1` command to place them on your website (Or use any other directory if you want) houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
