[opensuse] App:Geo - Unable to differentiate between two repos
Hello, I recently installed QGIS from the Application:Geo devel project on Tumbleweed, and in addition to the App:Geo repo I also subscribed to another seemingly identical repo: $ zypper lr -EU | awk -F'|' '{print $3 $7}' | grep 'opensuse.org' | rg -v home | sort Application:Geo http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Application:/Geo/openSUSE_Tumblewe... Main Repository (NON-OSS) http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/non-oss/ Main Repository (OSS) http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ Main Update Repository http://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed/ openSUSE:Tumbleweed http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/ Software for Scientists and Engineers (openSUSE_Tumbleweed) http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ Does anyone know what the 'openSUSE:Tumbleweed' repo is in this context, and why does App:Geo depend on it? I can't find it anywhere on the project page at build.opensuse.org, and looking at the contents it seems almost identical to the 'Main Repository (OSS)' Regards, Chris

It is unclear what it means. Did you do it intentionally yourself? Did it happen automatically? In the latter case, how exactly did you "subscribe" to Application:Geo? I can assure you that when you "subscribe" by adding repository in zypper or YaST, it does not add other random repositories.

Main Repository (NON-OSS) http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/non-oss/ Main Repository (OSS) http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ Main Update Repository http://download.opensuse.org/update/tumbleweed/ openSUSE:Tumbleweed http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed/standard/ Software for Scientists and Engineers (openSUSE_Tumbleweed) http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/
Does anyone know what the 'openSUSE:Tumbleweed' repo is in this context, and why does App:Geo depend on it?
Your Application:Geo repository is built against openSUSE:Tumbleweed, so it is logical that it should depend on it.
I can't find it anywhere on the project page at build.opensuse.org, and looking at the contents it seems almost identical to the 'Main Repository (OSS)'
It is not "almost", it is identical. It is redirected to http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/. Consider it historical artifact. If your question is can you remove it - yes, you can, it is redundant. If your question is why you have it defined - you need to describe in more details what exactly you did.

I didn't blame anyone or anything this time. What I think about it I kept to myself :-P -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)

I'll blame the one click application for you, it simply does not work well for 3rd party repo's and regularly adds additional repo's that users likely don't need or want. Personally i'd strongly discourage anyone for using it for any non official packages. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

if one is *diligent* and reads what is offered on-screen, the package can be installed w/o adding the repo. but it is true that it is very difficult for one to be diligent for someone else's actions. the same *diligence* is necessary when installing opensuse. one needs to read and observe the on-screen instructions. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Hi Andrei, Indeed, I used the 1-click install option on https://software.opensuse.org/package/qgis This seemed straight forward in the past, now I'll make sure to be more diligent on what repos get installed as well. My question was more the first than the second, I'll just safely remove the duplicate repo. Regards, Chris
