====== susola

Different useful scripts for use on openSUSE_ Linux or other Linux distributions.

Installation

First, you need to build fresh RPM package and then to install it. For simplification, I recomend execute next commands for this::

$ make
# make install

If you already have susola installed to your system Makefile auto update it with fresh version.

To uninstall, just remove susola package with rpm -e command::

# rpm -e susola

Very tiny web page generated in real-time with basic sysinfo about Linux system.

Requirements

* Python_ 2.6 or higher

Usage

This script is small and efficient for me replacement of sysinfo2html, phpSysInfo or ajenti_.

To enable sysinfo2web, just execute::

$ sysinfo2web

And point your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ to see results.

To customize ip or port on which sysinfo2web script would be ran setup this values manually, like::

$ sysinfo2web <ip>:<port>

or::

$ sysinfo2web :<port>

After changing ip or port, point browser to new URI to see system information about your Linux machine.

zypper-bin

Batch install all packages earlier found by zypper se -u.

Requirements

* zypper_
* Python_ 2.4 or higher

Usage

If sometimes, you need to install all packages found by zypper se -u command in batch mode - use zypper-bin script::

Batch remove all packages earlier found by zypper se -i.

Requirements

* zypper_
* Python_ 2.4 or higher

Usage

By default, openSUSE shipped with *-{de|fr|it|pl|ru} locale packages that in most cases unneeded. Then you can to found all of these packages, but cannot remove. To avoid this - use zypper-brm script::

# zypper se -i "*-de" | zypper-brm

Also, you can use script after show all installed packages in some repo and grepping data::

zypper-iuc

I stall update candidates from different repositories.

Requirements

* zypper_
* Python_ 2.4 or higher

Usage

Sometimes, you can have un-installable packages when running # zypper up command. In general case this means that packages are from different repository and you need to install it directly with $ zypper in <package>-<version>.

To automate this process - use zypper-iuc script::

# zypper up <package> | zypper-iuc

# zypper mr -e <repo> && 
zypper ref <repo> && 
zypper up -r <repo> && 
zypper mr -d <repo>

zypper-ur

Update urls for all zypper repositories to new openSUSE version.
