Re: Why is fluxbox not in official repo?

Some repos of my own choice, for my own use. I just wanted a simple
Bash command to list my repos in a text file, so that I can speedily
repopulate the repo list for 'zypper' or 'smart', to re-install the
current 11.0 or to install the next version.

The 1-Click Install is too cumbersome for 20 or so repos. And I cannot
reliably remember all the repos. For instance, I just got around to
add "BS/repositories/M17N/openSUSE_11.0". The text file should give me
a base line of which repos of interest for myself.

Of course, I should know 'bash', 'awk', 'grep', 'cut', etc.

Two ways around it.
1) Write a scripts and put that online. The script does something like:
for REPO in repo1 repo2 repo3
do
zypper ar $REPO
done
2) Wite a repo that adds all your repo's

See `man zypper` for whatever you need it to do, Oh and you can put the
script online on e.g. the build server and then use the one-click
install to install and run it.
