openSUSE-repos

Definitions for openSUSE repository management via zypp-services.

This feature was originally requested as part of https://code.opensuse.org/leap/features/issue/91

See official docs for zypp-services for more details.

Example manual usage of zypper as

$ tree /somewhere # zypp expects repo/repoindex.xml
/somewhere
└── repo
    └── repoindex.xml

$ zypper addservice /somewhere openSUSE # Use openSUSE prefix for all reposistories managed by service
$ zypper ref -s # optionally force refresh services

Cleanup of distribution repositories not managed by zypp-services

You might want to remove old duplicate entries in /etc/zypp/repos.d/.

Repositories managed by zypp-services can be easily identified as they will have openSUSE: prefix (or any other that you have chosen).

$ ls -la /etc/zypp/repos.d/ | grep -v openSUSE: # skip service managed repos
openSUSE-20220923-0.repo download.opensuse.org-oss.repo
repo-debug.repo download.opensuse.org-tumbleweed.repo
repo-source.repo

Cleanup of old distribution repositories on a freshly installed openSUSE Tumbleweed

$ sudo rm -f /etc/zypp/repos.d/download.opensuse.org-non-oss.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/openSUSE-*-0.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/download.opensuse.org-oss.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/repo-debug.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/download.opensuse.org-tumbleweed.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/repo-source.repo

Cleanup of old distribution repositories on a freshly installed openSUSE Leap 15.X

$ sudo rm -f  /etc/zypp/repos.d/repo-backports-debug-update.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/repo-backports-update.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/repo-sle-debug-update.repo \
/etc/zypp/repos.d/repo-sle-update.repo

How to contribute?

Package is developed in GitHub/openSUSE.

Package needs to be manually updated in OBS once changes are merged in GitHub.

Make sure to install osc and required obs services by openSUSE-repos package

$ sudo zypper in openSUSE-release-tools obs-service-tar

Fork the repository in OBS, fetch latest request and make a submit request.

$ osc bco Base:System/openSUSE-repos
cd home:i*:branches:Base:System/openSUSE-repos
osc service runall
osc addremove
osc commit # changelog can be reviewed by osc vc
osc sr # submit request back to Base:System

Don't forget to send changes back to Tumbleweed and Leap once changes are merged to Base:System.

$ osc sr Base:System openSUSE-repos openSUSE:Factory
$ osc sr openSUSE:Factory openSUSE-repos openSUSE:Leap:15.5 # once merged to Factory

That's all. Happy Hacking
