Is there a way of automatically keeping a copy of everything yast installs from online repositories? At the moment I have to download manually and restart yast after refreshing (createrepo) my local repo.
Are you the same poster as several weeks ago? This very same topic came up a few weeks ago and elicited quite a few replies. My suggestion (that didn't suit the original poster) was to adopt the superior package manager "smart". I have used it for more than a year and have saved all my upgrade downloads in a local cache with no effort once set.

nope it wasn't me, I only joined a few days ago. I saw smart mentioned in another thread and installed and tried to enter my local repository but it refused to accept it. I then checked out it's home page and tried command line configuration and that seemed a problem too. With programs that can have such an impact on my system (did you know that gnome menus stops kde menu editing ) I prefer the devil I know. Besides I've grown attached to yast after all these years. merry christmas Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
