Hi per,
Correct, that's the shell expanding the wildcard. Escape it with a backslash to stop that = '\*'
thanks, i have never understood all this bash script functions with \ ' " ` () (()) [] [[]] its always a miracle for me why one or the other will work, and last weekend exact the same if thrn with () in one of my own scripts where working and in one other of my own scripts not... both with same variables... not inside a function or something else only a "if then". one are working, one not..... i really do not understand shellscript-logic. up to now i have not found a really good tutorial in my mother language german and in english i am lacking of some important words so i understand only partly. :-((((((((( zypper -v install -f --download-only --dry-run --from name-of-repo \* so, this works, except it will not make a dry-run, and it tests the depency's (what for a download only is not good) and it only loads the newest packages down. for this a solution with the "download" command would be better, if there is a possibility to specify the repo to be used: zypper download --dry-run --all-matches \* (this will end in a dry-run with a HUGE amount of data....) simoN Am 20.09.2018 um 10:12 schrieb Per Jessen:

No. To download a repo or parts of it you use a normal file downloader of your choice or preference.
as have written : "non browsable"
so, non browsable will not make it possible for me to get all the names of files they where there, except they are somewhere inside repo.xml which points to this repodata-files something like ....-primary.xml (and others) but without writing a script to extract the filenames i see no possibility to use a file downloader.
Yep, I would agree.
i tried: zypper install -f --download-only --dry-run --repo name-of-repo *
BUT 1) the "*" will not interpretet as it should, (in my opinion) it will try to download names found at the actual working directory
