That would assume there is a detection that the repos are in fact the same.
given they are said to be mirrors, this could be acheived :-) - usually the folder name is the same (SUSE/10.2/, for example - the other part varies)
I don't think this is realistic - this would mean a globally unique identification of a repository. A checksum might work out, or not.
no, the problem arise when the two mirrors are not in sync, so the checksum is to be different but should not :-(
Also, I believe you want this to apply for online repos only, correct?
of course
second
the update directory is directly related to one source directory and should be bind to him, why not setup in one movement (adding source add also update), at least for the official repository
I think it is more that an update repository is bound to a product installed.
still the mirror problem. one user can have the master (suse/10.2/) on a server and the suse/update/10.2 on an other server, possibly with not synced contents but, thinking, may be all this could be avoided using only download.opensuse.org as a souce. I know this is not always the better choice nowaday, but it could be (?) easier to fix download.opensuse.org than any other mirror. could it be possible to have a way to add mirrors on doo _only_ when they have synced? jdd -- http://www.dodin.net Le manuel d'optique de Lucien Dodin http://lesprismes.free.fr/optique/index.html -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
