I have one machine that usually has set up the specific set of package repositories that I want to use. It is not uncommon that I want this exact same set of repositories on a few other machines. To date, I have edited the list for each system in YaST. Yes, a real time killer. How are others doing this? I would expect there to be an export command that makes something that can be imported on another system. I have not found it. For example, the zypper command (that I know about) to list the repositories does so in a way that cannot be imported elsewhere. What trick has not found itself up my sleve?
Tell it to export the repos in .repo format from the system that has the full set of repos using: zypper lr -e repositories.repo Transfer the list and then import them using: zypper ar -r repositories.repo Any duplicate repos won't be added, so you won't need to trim out already existing repos.
