Hi, i would like to drop rugs concepts from zypper and use zypp concepts instead. Concepts like /catalog/ or /service/ are not (to be) used in zypp(er). (I hope the current 'installation source vs. repository' flame-war on yast-devel will not affect this badly and that the terminology will be agreed upon shortly.) In fact, i already defined new command aliases in zypper-command [1] and started to update rug-zypper compatibility list [2]. e.g.: ------------------+----+----------------------+---------------------------- zypper command | St | rug command | rug description ------------------+----+----------------------+---------------------------- addrepo ++ service-add (sa) Add a service rmrepo ++ service-delete (sd) Delete a service listrepos (lr) ++ service-list (sl) List the available s... I'd like them short and have shorthands for those which can't be short (like in rug). Also, i'd like zypper to use --repository, -r instead of --catalog, -c to specify repository to work with. (or do you want `s/repository/installation source` and `s/repo/source`?). Of course *rug compatibility will be preserved* (and improved). But man page and help text should mention the new zypper commands and mention rug commands in compatibility notes/tables/etc. This will NOT affect zypper's functionality or future features. It's just an attempt to clean up the confusing terminology for good. the links: [1] http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/trunk/zypper/src/zypper-command.h http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/trunk/zypper/src/zypper-command.cc (see ZypperCommand::parse(const std::string & strval_r) method for the definition of the aliases) [2] http://svn.opensuse.org/svn/zypp/trunk/zypper/doc/zypper-rug Your opinions?
