.rpm repositories not showing all specified releases versions on UI

[Cloud-Kid]

Hi,

I have a small issue about custom .rpm repo, if I create a local rpm repo and select release 7 and 8 for instance, only 8 appears on the UI, I don't have any host to test if release 7 works but both should be shown.

Regards, Cloudkid

The fact is you can not create a rpm repository having the same name for 2 different release versions. I know the form permits you to select multiple release versions but in the end it only creates the repository for the last selected release version. I should patch it to avoid selecting multiple release versions and confusion.

In the future I would like to make it possible to have multiple release versions for one repository, but this will require a migration of the existing repositories (with directories renaming which is kinda critical).

To resume, your repository ver. 7 does not appear in the list simply because it was not created. In your case, you have to create two distinct repositories like:

• rpm-custom-el7
• rpm-custom-el8

Ok I understand the issue, thanks for giving it a look. In my use case I have a custom package that I try to push for all my RedHat servers in the same repo, the package is empty and compatible with every version of RHEL, I think it should be resolved with what you plan to do !

5.0.0 now permits you to re-use the same repository name for multiple release versions.

You can close this issue if you think this resolves your problem.
