From: aawardhan@gmail.com on 11 Jul 2006 05:35 Hi, I am trying to create a local installation source. The folder structure looks like this myFolder/i386/update/10.0/ -- patches -- RPM this structure is similar to /var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt i ve put my RPMs(dummy RPMs) in RPM folder.. the older folder "patches' contain meta data information (??) of the RPMs in RPM folder. How do I generate these meta data in patches folder???

Not sure if that will work for the patches. -- houghi Please to not toppost The blue light suddenly flashed on my horrified face. What a disaster! Oh, the humanity!

From: aawardhan@gmail.com on 11 Jul 2006 06:20 createrepo creates 4 XML files.. filelists.xml.gz, other.xml.gz, primary.xml.gz, repomd.xml .... im not asking that. the below folder /var/lib/YaST2/you/mnt/i386/update/10.0/patches contains files that describes abt the patches. for example, check out the below link.. ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/update/10.0/patches/ thes file has details like PGP signature, and other meta data of the patch.. i need to create these files... houghi wrote: > aawardhan(a)gmail.com wrote: > > Hi, > > I am trying to create a local installation source.
