zhangboyue 翻译中 45 Zypper Commands to Manage ‘Suse’ Linux Package Management

SUSE (Software and System Entwicklung (Germany) meaning Software and System Development, in English) Linux lies on top of Linux Kernel brought by Novell. SUSE comes in two pack. One of them is called OpenSUSE, which is freely available (free as in speech as well as free as in wine). It is a community driven project packed with latest application support, the latest stable release of OpenSUSE Linux is 13.2.

The other is SUSE Linux Enterprise which is a commercial Linux Distribution designed specially for enterprise and production. SUSE Linux Enterprise edition comes with a variety of Enterprise Applications and features suited for production environment, the latest stable release of SUSE Linux Enterprise Edition is 12.

You may like to check the detailed installation instruction of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server at:

Zypper and YaST are the Package Manager for SUSE Linux, which works on top of RPM.

YaST which stands for Yet another Setup Tool is a tool that works on OpenSUSE and SUSE Enterprise edition to administer, setup and configure SUSE Linux.

Zypper is the command line interface of ZYpp package manager for installing, removing and updating SUSE. ZYpp is the package management engine that powers both Zypper and YaST.

Here in this article we will see Zypper in action, which will be installing, updating, removing and doing every other thing a package manager can do. Here we go…

Important : Remember all these command are meant for system wide changes hence must be run as root, else the command will fail.

Getting Basic Help with Zypper

  1. Run zypper without any option, will give you a list of all global options and commands.

    zypper

    Usage: zypper [--global-options]

  2. To get help on a specific command say ‘in’ (install), run the below commands.

    zypper help in

    OR

    zypper help install

    install (in) [options] <capability|rpm_file_uri> ...

    Install packages with specified capabilities or RPM files with specified location. A capability is NAME[.ARCH][OP], where OP is one of <, <=, =, >=, >.

    Command options: --from <alias|#|URI> Select packages from the specified repository. -r, --repo <alias|#|URI> Load only the specified repository. -t, --type Type of package (package, patch, pattern, product, srcpackage). Default: package. -n, --name Select packages by plain name, not by capability. -C, --capability Select packages by capability. -f, --force Install even if the item is already installed (reinstall), downgraded or changes vendor or architecture. --oldpackage Allow to replace a newer item with an older one. Handy if you are doing a rollback. Unlike --force it will not enforce a reinstall. --replacefiles Install the packages even if they replace files from other, already installed, packages. Default is to treat file conflicts as an error. --download-as-needed disables the fileconflict check. ......

  3. Search for a package (say gnome-desktop) before installing.

Modifying Repositories

Here, we use ‘zypper modifyrepo‘ or ‘zypper mr‘ commands to disable, enable zypper repositories.

  1. Before disabling repository, you must know that in Zypper, every repository has its own unique number, that is used to disable or enable a repository.

Let’s say you want to disable repository ‘repo-oss‘, to disable first you need to its number by typing following command.

# zypper lr

# | Alias                     | Name                               | Enabled | Refresh
--+---------------------------+------------------------------------+---------+--------
1 | openSUSE-13.2-0           | openSUSE-13.2-0                    | Yes     | No     
2 | repo-debug                | openSUSE-13.2-Debug                | Yes     | Yes    
3 | repo-debug-update         | openSUSE-13.2-Update-Debug         | No      | Yes    
4 | repo-debug-update-non-oss | openSUSE-13.2-Update-Debug-Non-Oss | No      | Yes    
5 | repo-non-oss              | openSUSE-13.2-Non-Oss              | Yes     | Yes    
6 | repo-oss                  | openSUSE-13.2-Oss                  | No      | Yes    
7 | repo-source               | openSUSE-13.2-Source               | No      | Yes    
8 | repo-update               | openSUSE-13.2-Update               | Yes     | Yes    
9 | repo-update-non-oss       | openSUSE-13.2-Update-Non-Oss       | Yes     | Yes

Do you see in the above output, that the repository ‘repo-oss‘ having number 6, to disable this you need to specify number 6 along with following command.

# zypper mr -d 6

Repository 'repo-oss' has been successfully disabled.

  1. To enable again same repository ‘repo-oss‘, which appears at number 6 (as shown in above example).

    zypper mr -e 6

    Repository 'repo-oss' has been successfully enabled.

  2. Enable auto-refresh and rpm file ‘caching‘ for a repo say ‘repo-non-oss‘ and set its priority to say 85.

    zypper mr -rk -p 85 repo-non-oss

    Repository 'repo-non-oss' priority has been left unchanged (85) Nothing to change for repository 'repo-non-oss'.

  3. Disable rpm file caching for all the repositories.

    zypper mr -Ka

    RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'openSUSE-13.2-0'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-debug'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-debug-update'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-debug-update-non-oss'.

  4. Enable rpm file caching for all the repositories.

    zypper mr -ka

    RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'openSUSE-13.2-0'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-debug'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-debug-update'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-debug-update-non-oss'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-non-oss'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-oss'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-source'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-update'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-update-non-oss'.

  5. Disable rpm file caching for remote repositories.

    zypper mr -Kt

    RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-debug'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-debug-update'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-debug-update-non-oss'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-non-oss'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-oss'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-source'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-update'. RPM files caching has been disabled for repository 'repo-update-non-oss'.

  6. Enable rpm file caching for remote repositories.

    zypper mr -kt

    RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-debug'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-debug-update'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-debug-update-non-oss'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-non-oss'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-oss'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-source'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-update'. RPM files caching has been enabled for repository 'repo-update-non-oss'.

Adding Repositories

You may make use of any of the two commands – ‘zypper addrepo‘ or ‘zypper ar‘. You may use repo url or alias to add Repository.

  1. Add a repository say “http://download.opensuse.org/update/12.3/”.

    zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.1/ update

    Adding repository 'update' .............................................................................................................................................................[done] Repository 'update' successfully added Enabled : Yes
    Autorefresh : No
    GPG check : Yes
    URI : http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.1/

  2. Rename a repository. It will change the alias only. You may use command ‘zypper namerepo‘ or ‘zypper nr‘. To rename aka change alias of a repo that appears at number 10 (zypper lr) to upd8, run the below command.

    zypper nr 10 upd8

    Repository 'update' renamed to 'upd8'.

Removing Repositories

  1. Remove a repository. It will remove the repository from the system. You may use the command ‘zypper removerepo‘ or ‘zypper rr‘. To remove a repo say ‘upd8‘, run the below command.

    zypper rr upd8

    Removing repository 'upd8' .........................................................................................[done]

    Repository 'upd8' has been removed.

Package Management using Zypper

Install a Package with Zypper

  1. With Zypper, we can install packages based upon capability name. For example, to install a package (say Mozilla Firefox) using capability name.
