Cannot register yum (repodata) sources
Last modified: 2006-03-15 10:32:26 UTC
I cannot register yum (repodata) repositories in yast's Installation Source dialog, neither in a local directory, nor over http. The following command succeeds, so the meta-data themselves are correct: rug service-add --type=yum file:///var/tmp/kmp-test kmp-test
This problem is blocking KMP testing and test case generation. We really, really need this fixed for sure in Beta 8.
HuHa told me that something like this works fine for yum sources, Pkg::SourceCreate( "http://dist.suse.de/install/SLP/SUSE-10.0-RC4/CD1/", "" ); so the underlying code seems to work, it's probably a check in the GUI that isn't correct with yum repositories anymore. Klaus told me it's you who is responsible for the code. Could you please have a look?
Fixed in libzypp rev.2460 and yast2-pkg-bindings-2.13.26. Harald, armstrong does not provide any products to be shown in the YaST installation sources UI, therefore it's "unknown" right now.
Created attachment 72805 [details] Doesn't quite look like it is fixed
Created attachment 72806 [details] Error when trying to save
We need a mechanism to store a name with a yum data source (e.g., by putting it in an optional file), or at least we must generate an alias somehow. It would be nice to be able to enter / edit the name of a source as well.

The new failure is a duplicate of #158162
