I'll do some tests this afternoon and see if it breaks anything (obviously
we can't ask people to remove and re-add their updates media due to this).
If it doesn't break anything, then so much the better. If it does well,
in my build scripts I had to differentiate 9.2 from the other distribs and I
can continue to do that. Not a big deal. But if they all work the same
way, it'll be easier.
Please, tell me what error message you have with various distrib and what are
the organizations of the files, it should be the same as 9.2 in fact, I don't
understand why other distro need different organizations (I wonder how it could
works).
I didn't ever have any errors... but I've been using the root directory as
the pointer to hdlist for three years. =) Anyways, I tried 9.1 and point
genhdlist to updates/9.1/RPMS instead of updates/9.1 and it seems to work
fine.
I will go through and test the rest to see if they can all be done that way.
If so, then the problem is easily solved. =)

Updates always worked, except for 9.2. 9.2 was the one that changed so that
how it used to be done no longer worked.
Doesn't matter now tho.

It can't be drakx. I did a 9.1-cooker upgrade. When I add a media using
my local mirror:
urpmi.addmedia updates ftp://10.0.5.12/BIG2/updates/9.2/RPMS with
../base/hdlist.cz
it did not install using my normal call to genhdlist (which has always been
genhdlist /mnt/BIG2/updates/9.1). Now I have to do genhdlist
/mnt/BIG2/updates/9.2/RPMS in order for it to work properly.
That can't be drakx.

For 8.2-9.1 I do:

So something in 9.2 changed. And not in the installer.

I've been doing it that way for years. It's never been a problem before
