Description Pavel Nemec 2008-04-16 09:28:32 UTC

accoarding to zypper --help, alias is not mandatory. But if I invoke command without alias, it fail. 
See those two commands, first with alias succeded, second fail.

I'll adapt the help text and the man page to reflec the two possible argument variants for addrepo. The one-argument variant expects an URI to a .repo file. The other expects repository URI and an alias. I'll also try to display a meaningful error message if an expected .repo file was not found.

fixed in svn

current output (so less confusing I hope):
 ./zypper.sh ar ftp://sleposlab.suse.cz/install_sources/SLES-10-SP1-DVD-i386-GM-DVD1
If only one argument is used, it must be a URI pointing to a .repo file.
addrepo (ar) [options] <URI> <alias>
addrepo (ar) [options] <FILE.repo>

Add a repository to the sytem. The repository can be specified by its URI or can be read from specified .repo file (even remote).

  Command options:
-r, --repo <FILE.repo>  Read the URI and alias from a file (even remote).
-t, --type <TYPE>       Type of repository (yast2, rpm-md, plaindir).
-d, --disable           Add the repository as disabled.
-c, --check             Probe URI.
-x, --no-check           Don't probe URI, probe later during refresh.
