I have 2 questions for libzypp and the zypper commandline tool:
1. Is there any way to completely and forcefully disable the vendor check ? I now that I can add trusted vendors to the list, but that is not my objective. I rely on the repo priority, and do not wish to use the vendor check feature of libzypp.
None that i know of. CCing to zypp-devel mailing list.
We can have a zypp.conf option for this. That should not be a big deal.
JFYI: Will be available in libzypp-6.6.0.

Ah, this is great! I have been wanting this for so long. I should have spoken earlier :-) Thanks for the replies, and the enlightening thread on zypp-devel list.
