91 ## Whether repository urls should be probed when added
93 ## Valid values: boolean
94 ## Default value: false
96 ## If true, accessability of repositories is checked immediately (when added)
97 ## (e.g. 'zypper ar' will check immediately)

105 ## Amount of time in minutes that must pass before another refresh.
107 ## Valid values: Integer
110 ## If you have autorefresh enabled for a repository, it is checked for
111 ## up-to-date metadata not more often than every <repo.refresh.delay>
112 ## minutes. If an automatic request for refresh comes before <repo.refresh.delay>
113 ## minutes passed since the last check, the request is ignored.
115 ## A value of 0 means the repository will always be checked. To get the oposite

126 ## A list of locales for which translated package descriptions should
127 ## be downloaded, in case they are availavble and the repo supports this.
128 ## Not all repo formats support downloading specific translations only.
130 ## Valid values: List of locales like 'en', 'en_US'...

169 ## Whether to consider using a .delta.rpm when downloading a package
171 ## Valid values: boolean
172 ## Default value: true
174 ## Using a delta rpm will decrease the download size for package updates
175 ## since it does not contain all files of the package but only the binary
176 ## diff of changed ones. Recreating the rpm package on the local machine
177 ## is an expensive operation (memory,CPU). If your network connection is

190 # download.use_deltarpm.always = false
193 ## Hint which media to prefer when installing packages (download vs. CD).
195 ## Valid values: download, volatile
196 ## Default value: download
198 ## Note that this just a hint. First of all the solver will choose the 'best'
199 ## package according to its repos priority, version and architecture. But if
200 ## there is a choice, we will prefer packages from the desired media.
202 ## Packages available locally are always preferred. The question is whether
203 ## you prefer packages being downloaded via FTP/HTTP/HTTPS (download), rather
204 ## than being prompted to insert a CD/DVD (volatile), in case they are available
207 ## Name | Priority | URI
208 ## openSUSE-11.1 99 dvd:///
209 ## openSUSE-11.1-Oss 99 http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1/repo/oss
211 ## In the above example 2 repositories with similar content are used. Rather
212 ## than raising the priority of one of them to 'prefer' a certain media, you
213 ## should use the same priority for both and set download.media_preference
216 ## download.media_preference = download
219 ## Commit download policy to use as default.
221 ## DownloadOnly, Just download all packages to the local cache.
222 ## Do not install. Implies a dry-run.
224 ## DownloadInAdvance, First download all packages to the local cache.
225 ## Then start to install.
227 ## DownloadInHeaps, Similar to DownloadInAdvance, but try to split
228 ## the transaction into heaps, where at the end of
229 ## each heap a consistent system state is reached.
231 ## DownloadAsNeeded Alternating download and install. Packages are
232 ## cached just to avid CD/DVD hopping. This is the
233 ## traditional behaviour.
235 ## <UNSET> If a value is not set, empty or unknown, we pick
236 ## some sane default.

241 ## Defining directory which contains vendor description files.
243 ## One file in this directory reflects a group of equivalent vendors. e.G.:

245 ## ------------------------- file contains begin -----------------------
248 ## vendors = nvidia,suse,opensuse
250 ## ------------------------- file contains end -----------------------
251 ## Libzypp makes an string comparision (like strncmp, case-insensitive)
252 ## whereas the beginning of the strings are compared only.
253 ## e.G. vendor "opensuse11.0" is compatible to "openSuSE".

263 ## So recommended packages, language packages and packages which depend
264 ## on hardware (modalias) will not be regarded.
266 ## Valid values: boolean
267 ## Default value: false
269 # solver.onlyRequires = false
272 ## EXPERTS ONLY: Per default the solver will not replace packages of
273 ## different vendors, unless you explicitly ask to do so. Setting this
274 ## option to TRUE will disable this vendor check (unless the application
275 ## explicitly re-enables it). Packages will then be considered based on
276 ## repository priority and version only. This may easily damage your system.
278 ## CHANGING THE DEFAULT IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
280 ## Valid values: boolean
281 ## Default value: false
283 # solver.allowVendorChange = false
286 ## EXPERTS ONLY: Cleanup when deleting packages. Whether the solver should
287 ## per default try to remove packages exclusively required by the ones he's
290 ## This option should be used on a case by case basis, enabled via
291 ## command line options or switches the applications offer. Changing
292 ## the global default on a system where unattended actions are performed,
293 ## may easily damage your system.

303 ## This file contains requirements/conflicts which fulfill the

305 ## For example the system would be broken if not glibc or kernel is

318 ## When committing a dist upgrade (e.g. 'zypper dup') a solver testcase
319 ## is written to /var/log/updateTestcase-<date>. It is needed in bugreports.
320 ## This optin returns the number of testcases to keep on the system. Old
321 ## cases will be deleted, as new ones are created.
323 ## Use 0 to write no testcase at all, or -1 to keep all testcases.
325 ## Valid values: Integer
328 # solver.upgradeTestcasesToKeep = 2
331 ## Whether dist upgrade should remove a products dropped packages.
333 ## A new product may suggest a list of old and no longer supported
334 ## packages (dropped packages). Performing a dist upgrade the solver
335 ## may try to delete them, even if they do not cause any dependency
338 ## Turning this option off, the solver will not try to remove those
339 ## packages unless they actually do cause dependency trouble. You may
340 ## do the cleanup manually, or simply leave them installed as long
341 ## as you don't need the disk space.

344 ## Default value: true

349 ## Packages which can be installed in different versions at the same time.
351 ## Packages are selected either by name, or by provides. In the later case
352 ## the string must start with "provides:" immediately followed by the capability.
355 ## kernel - just packages whith name 'kernel'
