Tumbleweed:Raw

RD777 · March 11, 2011, 1:55am

Hello, I’ve been having this error message that says

PackageKit Error repo-not-available: File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Tumbleweed:/Raw/openSUSE_Tumbleweed_standard/'

I would like to know if this repository is vital to my computer, since I would like to disable it or remove it in order to be able to upgrade to 11.4. The link on that repository is broken and well I haven’t found any information on Tumbleweed:Raw or a new mirror link. Here is the output of zipper lr -d

Thanks in advance.

In order do to only update, you should disable all 11.3 repos and add
11.4 repos instead. Check this thread too, there are some valuable links
there to help you go through with it.

Hi,

If you want a rolling release, you should keep it. If not, delete it. For reference, check the tumbleweed project : Portal:Tumbleweed - openSUSE

Thanks a lot for the answers. I would like to have rolling releases but the problem is that I don’t know if the server is down but the fact is that the link I had was broken. Anyhow I will be performing a clean install, I made a backup and should start doing that soon enough. Thanks for the help again.

I have a question though. Is it possible to change the URI of a repo in the terminal? if so what is the command? I have looked in man zypper but so far I only know how to change the alias.

gogalthorp · March 11, 2011, 5:12am

You could do it from the command line Yast. Just type yast as root

In zypper you basically remove and add the repo. You don’t edit it.

Finding the command options is left as an exercise for the Puzzled

Thanks a lot! Found it haha took me a while to figure out TAB and TAB+Shift but thanks a lot!
