This manual page documents them. + +=head1 FILES + +=over + +=item I> + +Contains the list of all packages known by urpmi and their location. This +file is used when a password is used to access a distant location (using +a network protocol) or when various directories are used to store the +packages. That's why it's not world-readable. + +=item I.cz> + +Contains information about all known packages; it's a summary of rpm +headers. If an hdlist file is used for a medium, B can operate +completely without accessing this medium (this is almost always the case). + +=item I.cz> + +Contains synthesis information about all known packages built from hdlist +files that can be used by minimal closure algorithm. If these files are +not present, hdlist files will be used instead to resolve dependencies +(but this is much slower). + +=item I + +Contains media descriptions. +See urpmi.cfg(5). + +=item I + +Contains proxy descriptions for http and ftp media. See proxy.cfg(5). + +=item I + +Contains the descriptions of parallel aliases, one per line. Their general +format is B<< :: >> where +B<< >> is a symbolic name to identify the parallel alias, B<< + >> is one of the parallel install methods (can be B or +B), B<< >> is a media list (as given to the B<--media> +parameter), and finally B<< >> is a specific interface +parameter list like C<-c ssh -m node1 -m node2> for B extension or +C (list of node hostnames) for B extension. + +=item I + +The list of packages that should not be automatically +updated when using --auto-select.

It has +the same format as the skip.list. + +=item I + +This file is optional. If present, it should contain a single line: +B which is the URL of a document that lists the available +mirrors.
