Hello,

Is it possible to publish an installation repository as a zlm bundle or catalog?

We're having following situation :

- An installation repository (created with Yast module) published via http.
- A ZLM server which mirrors patches from novell and publishes these as catalogs.

For installing software there are 3 possiblities:
- With rug we can install all packages for which there is a patch available.
- The package which never received an update are not in ZLM. So for these packages we need to install with YaST.
- Some package do have patches, but depend upon packages which don't have patches. In this case we first need to install the package + dependencies via Yast and then update.

It would be easier if we could publish all packages via zlm so we can install packages with rug, no matter which package.

Would a setup such as this be possible?

Thanks,

Johan
