Managing Software Repositories

The Software Repositories WebYaST module allows you to manage software repositories used by package management. You can view the list of software repositories, edit them, or add new repositories.

To view the list of software repositories, edit or delete them, follow these steps:

  1. The list of available software repositories is shown. For each repository, its status icon, name and URL are shown. Using the Filter repositories drop-down menu, you can limit the list to enabled, disabled, or all repositories. You can also limit the repositories shown in the list by entering a string in Quick Search.

  2. Click any repository in the list to view detailed information.

    Detailed view contains Alias, Name, and URL of the repository. The latter two fields are editable. The status of the repository and of its autorefresh are shown. Both can be enabled or disabled. You can also enable or disable keeping of downloaded packages.

  3. To save the changes, click Save. To delete the selected repository, click Delete.

To add a new repository click New Repository.
