This manual page documents them. +.SH FILES +.de FN +\fI\|\\$1\|\fP +.. +.TP +.FN /var/lib/urpmi/list.<media_name> +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. +.TP +.FN /var/lib/urpmi/hdlist.<media_name>.cz +Contains information about all known packages; it's a summary of rpm headers. +If an hdlist file is used for a medium, \fBurpmf\fP can operate completely +without accessing this medium (this is almost always the case). +.TP +.FN /var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.<media_name>.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). +.TP +.FN /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg +Contains media descriptions. See \fIurpmi.cfg\fP(5). +.TP +.FN /etc/urpmi/proxy.cfg +Contains proxy descriptions for http and ftp media. See \fIproxy.cfg\fP(5). +.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 +--auto-select. It contains one package expression per line; either a package +name, or a regular expression (if enclosed in slashes \fB/\fP) to match the +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. +.TP +.FN /var/log/urpmi.log +The urpmi log file. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fIurpmi.cfg\fP(5), \fIproxy.cfg\fP(5). |
