Hi Everyone,
I am just using this script as a starting point: just pulling all the
patch rpms that are available in the updates repository. Maybe I will
rewrite it to pull only the installed rpms later, but I hope it will
work as a starting point to get things working. My HAL cdrom access
problem is already solved this way:
patchdownload.sh
#!/bin/bash
BASEURL="http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/suse/update/10.2/rpm/i586/";
WORKDIR=/usr/local/src/updates/patchrpms/
cd $WORKDIR
#get list of rpms from the patch directory
wget -c $BASEURL
#compile a list of patch rpms
awk -Fhref= '/patch.rpm/{print $2}' index.html|awk -F\" '{print
$2}'>list
#and pull rpms
while read line
do
wget -c $BASEURL/$line
done<list
Let me know if I am doing something the "too long" way round.
