Description Jigish Gohil 2008-07-28 11:04:42 UTC 
After creating addon iso, changing anything and recreating iso results in inconsistent metadata.

Here are the sha1sum of the rpm packages in the iso and the ones listed in suse/setup/descr/packages

It is not changing "anything". It happens when you add/change an RPM while YaST is running and click Create product. The metadata are not recreated.

1 start yast addon creator
2 build image
3 start sw_single remove old repo exit
4 start sw_single, add new repo
5 select pattern and try to install - errors
Comment 3 Martin Vidner 2008-07-28 12:37:47 UTC 
After some debugging, I discovered that add-on-creator has an option to sign the RPMs. The problem is that it does so *after* generating the metadata and thus it makes the RPM checksums invalid. Signing RPMs and the metadata should be separated to prevent this.
A workaround is to sign the RPMs beforehand outside add-on-creator.

BTW the logs should be more verbose so that I could see all this from them alone ;-)

Hm, it probably won't be that easy, create_package_descr is run at the start...
Comment 5 Jiří Suchomel 2008-08-05 11:04:33 UTC 
Fixed in yast2-add-on-creator-2.17.3 for next release.
For 11.0, fixed version is  yast2-add-on-creator-2.16.14 and can be found at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jsuchome/openSUSE_11.0/noarch/
