.TH urpmi.cfg 5 "28 Aug 2003" "MandrakeSoft" "Mandrake Linux"
.IX urpmi.cfg
.SH NAME
urpmi.cfg \- urpmi option and media configuration file format.
.SH DESCRIPTION
The urpmi.cfg file format is an enhancement of previous version of urpmi.cfg
format.
The file is divided in multiple sections: one section to set global options, and as
many sections as needed for the description of the media managed.
.SS Global options
Some global options can be activated by default. The following sample shows how
to disable signature checking and avoid transaction splits :
.B "{"
.br
.B " no-verify-rpm"
.br
.B " split-length: 0"
.br
.B "}"
The following options can be written in this section :
.TP
.B verify-rpm
Same as \fB--verify-rpm\fP for \fBurpmi\fP. Enable or disable signature
checking should be used, enabled by default. Disabling it can be written
in various ways (as for all the other boolean options) :
\fBno-verify-rpm\fP or \fBverify-rpm: no\fP or \fBverify-rpm: off\fP or
\fBverify-rpm: 0\fP.
.TP
.B fuzzy
Same as \fB--fuzzy\fP for \fBurpmi\fP or \fBurpmq\fP. Enable or disable
fuzzy search, disabled by default. Enabling it can be written in various ways :
\fBfuzzy\fP or \fBfuzzy: yes\fP or \fBfuzzy: on\fP or \fBfuzzy: 1\fP.
.TP
.B allow-force
Same as \fB--allow-force\fP for \fBurpmi\fP, disabled by default.
.TP
.B allow-nodeps
Same as \fB--allow-nodeps\fP for \fBurpmi\fP, disabled by default.
.TP
.B pre-clean, post-clean, clean
Control cache management for \fBurpmi\fP, default is only \fBpost-clean\fP
activated.
.TP
.B excludedocs
Same as \fB--excludedocs\fP for \fBurpmi\fP, default is disabled.
.TP
.B limit-rate
Same as \fB--limit-rate\fP for all tools. This option allows to control download
speed, there is no limitation by default. The number given is in Kilo-bytes per
second unless a suffix \fBK\fP, \fBM\fP is given.
.TP
.B excludepath
Same as \fB--excludepath\fP for \fBurpmi\fP. This option allow to give comma
separated list of path to be excluded on installation, there is no path
exclusion by default.
.TP
.B key-ids
This option is not available on the command line. It allows to use a comma
separated list of \fBkey-ids\fP to be globally accepted (keys still need to be
authorized by \fBrpm\fP) for any medium unless a specific \fBkey-ids\fP option
for this medium is given. There is no default (even MandrakeSoft key id 70771ff3
is not by default).
.TP
.B split-level
Same as \fB--split-level\fP for \fBurpmi\fP. This option allows to control if
transaction should be split depending of the number of packages to upgrade. The
default value is 20.
.TP
.B split-length
Same as \fB--split-length\fP for \fBurpmi\fP. This option allows to control the
minimal length of split transaction. The default value is 1 (smallest possible
transaction). Setting this value to 0 disable the split of transaction.
.SS Medium description
A medium is described as follows :
.B "name url {"
.br
.B " hdlist: ..."
.br
.B " ..."
.br
.B "}"
where \fBname\fP is name of medium (space character are prefixed by anti-slash)
and optional \fBurl\fP is url of the medium (if no \fBurl\fP is given, it will
be guessed according to so mandatory list file).
Most other options like \fBlist\fP, \fBwith_hdlist\fP, \fBsynthesis\fP,
\fBremovable\fP, \fBvirtual\fP are for internal use and should be changed only
for experienced users.
But options like \fBupdate\fP, \fBignore\fP or \fBkey-ids\fP can be modified by
users to mark medium as an update, to ignore medium or to give allowed GPG key
ids for packages of the medium for verification (unless of course signature
checking has been disabled globally).
Please note that \fBkey-ids\fP is automatically set by \fBurpmi.update\fP or
\fBurpmi.addmedia\fP if a remote pubkey file is available on the mirror. This
file contains all the GPG armor keys that may be used.
.SH BUGS
An \fB{\fP should finish a line, as well as a \fB}\fP should start it when used.
This means the construction \fB{ no-verify-rpm }\fP on a single line is invalid.
