the --noclean option works fine, if using it from the command line,
but using the supplied gui in the Mandrake Control Center, still
removes packages, and there is very limited options for the
configuration.

Hi,
I'm sorry if this question has been asked a thousand time, but I
cannot find any details on how to do this (probably wrong search
terms), but..
Is there a way to stop urpmi from cleaning out the cache of rpm's it
has downloaded into:
/var/cache/urpmi/rpms
I have managed to find the command option --noclean, and I have tried
adding it into the /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg file, as both:
noclean
urpmi --noclean
but this still cleans out any downloads, after using the mandrake
control center installer module.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I would like to install
Mandrake on my wife's machine and do not fancy downloading all the
files again on a 56k modem.
Thanks
Mark
Did you try no-clean ?
The manual does not explicitly mention it, but other commands can be negated
with 'no-'
See man urpmi.cfg
