Hi carlos, thanks for answer, but:

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. / or a script using the output from "zypper search -s --repo reponame" and puzzle this output to download names together....

Ok. You first add the repo normally, then you tell zypper to only download a certain package(s) (install with download only option), which will be temporarily stored at a certain local directory. At that point you manually make a copy of that directory.

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 2) i think it will also not use only that repo i gave with --repo 3) if i change to: zypper install -f --download-only --dry-run --repo name-of-repo hell* it interprets the "*" correct and start to only download all (actual) packages starting with "hell", but NOT older packages starting with "hell" 4) the --dry-run option is ignored (it will really download) files 5) second attemp i tried: zypper download --dry-run --all-matches hell* will download all versions of "hell*" but i do not know to specify the repo here, and also only "*" did gave me some "stupid"? results. :-(((( simoN www.becherer.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

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:

Hi carlos, yes, will do something like this. only for record: if using the command zypper download ... and NOT zypper install --download-only ... it will NOT check for conflicts. but the best solution would be to tell zypper to the download COMMAND (not the download-only option) some other options like tell him not useing the standart repo structure of the installed system by pointing him to another directory structure or something like this and have inside that directory only one repo file instead of all the repos in var/cache/zypp maybe therefore point to another zypper configuration file or changing some sytem vaiables used by zypper... but for this i have no idea how to do. was hoping one of the "heavy zypper" users here did know how.... simoN Am 20.09.2018 um 16:39 schrieb Carlos E.

Ideas:

Get the list of rpms there, including all versions if possible, by using "zypper se" or something similar. Then script the calls to issue several zypper calls to install (--download_only, not dry run) each version.

Yes, zypper will do checks on them. Maybe try --force. But do one file at a time to avoid conflicts.

But there is no "zypper download" command, to my knowledge. I looked at "man" and did not find it.

but the best solution would be to tell zypper to the download COMMAND (not the download-only option) some other options like tell him not useing the standart repo structure of the installed system by pointing him to another directory structure or something like this and have inside that directory only one repo file instead of all the repos in var/cache/zypp maybe therefore point to another zypper configuration file or changing some sytem vaiables used by zypper...

Yes, you can point zypper to install in another directory structure, say to install running a Linux system into another system. But that other directory structure may need a corresponding database of what is installed. Look at "--root" and other 3 options close to it in the manual. The last one is particularly interesting in your case: -R, --root dir Operates on a different root directory. This option influences the location of the repos.d directory and the metadata cache directory and also causes rpm to be run with the --root option to do the actual installation or removal of packages. See also the FILES section. --installroot dir Behaves like --root but shares the repositories with the host system. --disable-system-resolvables This option serves mainly for testing purposes. It will cause zypper to act as if there were no packages installed in the system. Use with caution as you can damage your system using this option. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

No. That's an option, not a command. It modifies a given command, but it is not a command on itself. You can not do "zypper -d package" or repo. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.0 (Legolas))

You can get the list of packages in the repo using YaST, so there must be another zypper command concoction that lists the packages in the repo. Maybe: zypper se --repo name --details Only that it doesn't create the exact rpm file names.

I'd go another path: rsync f.e. the x86_64, the i586, the noarch folders to /path/to/local/repo . Install 'createrepo' and do createrepo /path/to/local/repo zypper addrepo -f <repository name>

mh, maybe i do not understand, what is the goal of this?

what i understand is, this will add a second repo of the already installed repo to the complete system? could you explain?

-> after i have downloaded the rpm-files of course i will (i have already) a local repo generated with createrepo. but for this first i have to download the files to make sure they will not disappear on the server.
