Hi mvidner,

on http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Zypper_development i've read, that you are one of the zypper developer.

Hi Manuel, it is better to ask the zypp mailing list (in Cc).

Perhaps you could help me with one problem: I want to use 2 versions of Zypper on one machine, because I modified the second version. If there are problems with my version, i want to use the official one (SLES 11 SP1, zypper 1.3.7) without reinstall it.

So I build my own rpm with a different name of zypper. The Installation works perfectly and it runs as it shoud.

The problem are the same configfiles of both versions. Is it possible to use an other configuration directory for my version?

zypper --config /usr/local/etc/myspecialzypper.conf command --options args Please consider reading the fine manual: man zypper, searching for "config" reveals this as the second hit.

Thanks for your help

Regards

Manuel Rieke
