The following sample +shows how to disable signature checking and avoid transaction splits : + + { + no-verify-rpm + split-length: 0 + } + +The following options can be written in this section : + +=over + +=item B<allow-force> + +Same as specifying B<--allow-force> for B<urpmi>, disabled by default. + +=item B<allow-nodeps> + +Same as specifying B<--allow-nodeps> for B<urpmi>, disabled by default. + +=item B<downloader> + +Specify which download program to use: B<wget> or B<curl>. + +=item B<excludedocs> + +Same as specifying B<--excludedocs> for B<urpmi>, disabled by default. + +=item B<excludepath> + +Same as B<--excludepath> for B<urpmi>. This options allows to give a comma +separated list of paths to be excluded on installation. There is no path +exclusion by default. + +=item B<fuzzy> + +Same as B<--fuzzy> for B<urpmi> or B<urpmq>. Enable or disable fuzzy +search, disabled by default. Enabling it can be written in various ways : +C<fuzzy> or C<fuzzy: yes> or C<fuzzy: on> or C<fuzzy: 1>. + +=item B<key-ids> + +This option is not available on the command line. It allows to use a comma +separated list of key ids to be globally accepted (keys still need to be +authorized by B<rpm>) for any medium unless a specific B<key-ids> option +for this medium is given. There is no default (even Mandriva public key id +70771ff3 is not included by default). + +=item B<limit-rate> + +Same as B<--limit-rate> for all tools. This option allows to control +download speed; there is no limitation by default. The number is given in +kilo-bytes per second, unless a suffix C<K> or C<M> is added. + +=item B<nopubkey> + +Don't import pubkeys when updating media. + +=item B<noreconfigure> + +Specifies that the media should not be reconfigured (by a reconfiguration +file present on the medium). + +=item B<norebuild> + +Same as B<--norebuild> for B<urpmi>, B<urpmi.update> and +B<urpmi.addmedia>, disabled by default (meaning that B<urpmi> will try to +rebuild hdlists by default). + +=item B<pre-clean, post-clean, clean> + +Control cache management for B<urpmi>, default is only activated as +B<post-clean>. + +=item B<prohibit-remove> + +A comma-separated list of package names that must never be removed (just +like B<basesystem> dependencies). + +=item B<retry> + +Specify how many times the downloader should retry in case of non-permanent +errors. + +=item B<split-length> + +Same as B<--split-length> for B<urpmi>. This option allows to control the +minimal length of splitted transactions. The default value is 1 (smallest +possible transaction). Setting this value to 0 disables the splitting of +transactions. + +=item B<split-level> + +Same as B<--split-level> for B<urpmi>. This option allows to control if +transactions should be splitted depending of the number of packages to +upgrade. The default value is 20. + +=item B<strict-arch> + +Same as B<--strict-arch> for B<urpmi>. Boolean option, disabled by +default, meaning that packages can be upgraded with versions for another +architecture. + +=item B<verify-rpm> + +Same as B<--verify-rpm> for B<urpmi>. Enable or disable signature checking +(it's enabled by default). Disabling it can be written in various ways (as +for all the other boolean options) : C<no-verify-rpm> or C<verify-rpm: no> +or C<verify-rpm: off> or C<verify-rpm: 0>. + +=back + +=head1 MEDIUM DESCRIPTION + +A medium is described as follows : + + name url { + hdlist: ... + ... list of options, one per line ... + } + +where B<name> is the medium name (space characters must be prefixed by a +backslash) and where the optional B<url> is the medium URL (if no B<url> +is given, it will be guessed according to the mandatory list file). + +Most other options like B<list>, B<with_hdlist>, B<synthesis>, +B<removable>, B<virtual> are for internal use and should be changed only +by experienced users. + +Options like B<update>, B<ignore> or B<key-ids> can be modified by users +to respectively mark mediums as update sources, to have them being +ignored, or to specify the allowed GPG key ids for packages from the +medium for verification (unless of course signature checking has been +disabled globally). It's also possible to override B<verify-rpm> and +B<downloader> in a medium description. + +Media can be marked as B<static>: this means that they won't be updated by +B<urpmi.update> or other means. This is useful for read-only media such as +CDs. + +Please note that B<key-ids> is automatically set by B<urpmi.update> or +B<urpmi.addmedia> if a remote pubkey file is available on the mirror. This +file contains all the GPG armor keys that may be used. + +=head1 BUGS + +A C<{> should finish a line, as well as a C<}> should start it when used. +This means the construction C<{ no-verify-rpm }> on a single line is +invalid. + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Pascal Rigaux (original author), Francois Pons, Rafael Garcia-Suarez, +<rgarciasuarez@mandriva.com> (current maintainer) + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +urpmi(8), urpmi.files(5). |
