Could be an option, but that would be splitting out this functionality from what urpmi used to do. > Can you try with --virtual just to check ? Like this: # urpmi.addmedia --virtual test file://build/RPMS/cooker/ added medium test examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.cooker.cz] examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.contrib.cz] virtual medium "test" should have valid source hdlist or synthesis, medium ignored unable to update medium "test" Regards, Stefan
