Description Dax Kelson 2009-07-23 21:14:13 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.1) Gecko/20090717 Fedora/3.5.1-1.fc11 Firefox/3.5.1 AutoPager/0.5.2.2 (http://www.teesoft.info/)

With rug this command existed:

rug set security-level checksum

It was a one-time command you could run. Very useful, especially in a lab environment where we are testing packages that aren't signed.

With zypper I see no equivalent. However, I did discover that you can manually edit the repo file in /etc/zypp/repos.d/ and add the line 'gpgcheck=0'.

My request:

Add functionality to the "zypper addrepo" command such as '--set-gpgcheck 0'. Also add something similar to the "zypper modifyrepo" command.

Reproducible: Always




This is regression from rug.

Thanx for the report! Sure, this is an easy thing to do, but with low priority. Patch is always welcome.

Speaking of regressions from rug - this is not in the set of rug functionality that we internally agreed to provide in zypper for SLE11 (derived from openSUSE 11.1) => it's a feature request, not a bug.

11.1 -> 11.4

Comment 3 Jason Craig 2011-02-21 00:26:38 UTC

Still present in 11.4 RC1.

(changed during the 2011-02-20 Open-Bugs-Day about bugs for obsolete versions of openSUSE)

Comment 5 Dominik Heidler 2011-05-05 13:08:29 UTC

fixed in zypper 1.6.2 (git commit 724bf5870f6db661356862776a791459fc505a9f)

Comment 6 Michael Andres 2011-08-30 09:20:06 UTC

The implementation seems to change the default behavior for all newly created repos to have gpgchecks _disabled_.

Comment 7 Michael Andres 2011-08-30 09:54:32 UTC

fixed in zypper-1.6.15
