-.TP
-.FN /var/lib/urpmi/hdlist.*
-Contains information about all known packages; it's a summary of rpm headers.

-without accessing this medium (this is almost always the case).
-.TP
-.FN /var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.*
-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 but this is much slower.
-.TP
-.FN /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg
-Contains media description, previous format from older urpmi is still accepted.
-.TP
-.FN /etc/urpmi/parallel.cfg
-Contains parallel alias description, format is
-\fB<alias>:<interface[(media)]>:<interface_parameter>\fP where \fB<alias>\fP is
-a symbolic name, \fB<interface>\fP can be \fBka-run\fP or \fBssh\fP,
-\fB<media>\fP is a media list (as \fB--media\fP parameter),
-\fB<interface_parameter>\fP is a specific interface parameter list like "-c ssh
--m node1 -m node2" for \fBka-run\fP extension or "node1:node2" for \fBssh\fP
-extension.
-.TP
-.FN /etc/urpmi/skip.list
-The list of packages that should not be automatically updated when using

-name of packages against.
-.TP
-.FN /etc/urpmi/inst.list
-The list of packages that should be installed instead of updated. It has
-the same format as the skip.list.
