- Is it possible to install RPMs during "second stage"?
Yes, some YaST modules already do this, e.g. sound configuration.
In other words: Are the right package repositories available in "second stage" so that a YCP call like Package::Install(package_name) will work correctly?
Yes, the original installation repository is available. The Pool and Updates repos are available _after_ registering (in SLE), in openSUSE updates should be available always IIRC. See the sound module, for example: https://github.com/yast/yast-sound/blob/master/sound/src/sound_write.ycp#L91
- Is is allowed to do this?
Yes, it is possible, some modules already do this.
- If it is possible and allowed, how can I trigger that a package gets installed without any user interaction?
E.g. the sound module silently installs some additional tools and support for some sound cards. (Well, it's not completely silent, the progress is displayed.) You just need to be aware of "Automatic Configuration" in the 2nd stage or AutoYaST installation mode. See e.g. https://github.com/yast/yast-sound/blob/master/sound/src/sound_write.ycp#L31...
No info popup, no user confirmation popup, no license confirmation popup - only silent operation with a return value that indicates whether or not the requested package was actually installed.
"No info popup, no user confirmation popup", is OK in Automatic Configuration https://github.com/yast/yast-sound/blob/master/sound/src/sound_write.ycp#L12... "no license confirmation popup" could be acceptable only in AutoYaST installation (the license has been already confirmed). But rather ask for details legal people, I'm not expert in this area. In AutoYaST you can set the software selection separately so the question is if this functionality is actually needed.

This is very similar to the sound module, it has a mapping "driver"->[package list], see https://github.com/yast/yast-sound/blob/master/data/alsa_packages.ycp HTH Ladislav -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner@opensuse.org
