Well, the history file seems to be included in the deployed image, and probably shows how the image was created. If the information is reliable, the repo alias should be more descriptive and maybe the repo should also be deleted at the end. Otherwise we should delete the history.
I filed https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=513486 for this.
What kind of image? Do you mean the initial set of preinstalled packages from the initial system installation? That sounds quite convincing since all installations on the beginning and only at the beginning of zypp/history show up with repo-repo. In deed all these packages can be found on the DVD. Perhaps we should mention repo-repo at the official zypp/history description.
Yes, the initial installation from DVD uses prepared images to speed up installation. You can find them in the /images directory on the media. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma@novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-softwaremgmt+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-softwaremgmt+help@opensuse.org
