A fully configured Open-Suse build is several GB in size. I could download

re-do manually what Yast is already doing automatically (dependency resolving
and all)? All I ask is that -- please, can there be an OPTION to save
downloaded RPMs locally?

I'd love to have this option BACK.

Yes, I say back, because we had that option in SuSE 8 and 9, before we got zypper and zmd et families. It was removed, and not because it was not wanted, I guess.

I'd love it because if, even if I only install two times, it saves hours of download on the second time. And I do have broadband, too.


I wonder if we could use some kind of ftp proxy to do the job? That's not a good solution for everybody, but I dunno if it is possible.
