I've been trying to keep up to date with Factory, but every time I try an update, it fails for some reason or another. It's usually "Failed to parse XML metadata: Can't add repository at ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source: Cannot create the installation source" So after many weeks, I finally have factory "active" in rug, but now rug thinks I'm up to date: maus:~ # rug up No updates are available. The problem is that I'm not up to date: maus:~ # rpm -q bash bash-3.1-27 maus:~ # rug info bash Catalog: ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source Name: bash Version: 3.1-29 Arch: i586 Installed: No Status: up-to-date Why would rug think it's up-to-date when it clearly isn't? Here's my rug sl/ca: maus:~ # rug sl # | Status | Type | Name | URI --+--------+------+-------------+----------------------------------------------- 1 | Active | ZYPP | factory | ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribut... 2 | Active | YUM | funktronics | http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:... 3 | Active | YUM | aj-zen | ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/people/aj/... 4 | Active | YUM | os-tools | http://software.opensuse.org/download/openS... 5 | Active | ZYPP | extra | ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/suse/install/10.2/... maus:~ # rug ca Sub'd? | Name | Service -------+-------------+------------ Yes | funktronics | funktronics Yes | factory | factory Yes | aj-zen | aj-zen Yes | os-tools | os-tools | extra | extra -- James Oakley jfunk@funktronics.ca --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
