If one wants to save d/l rpms, then unchecking " "clear download cache after successful installation" does not work. rpms are still cleared from /var/cache/urpmi/rpms. This option urpmi --noclean <pkg> DOES work for the command line but would be nice to have working in rpmdrake. Thanks

Hi, thanks for reporting this bug. Assigned to the package maintainer.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life. Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- The Mageia Bugsquad
I've noticed this bug as well, and it still affects mga3. So I changed the version to mga3, and put a comment in the whiteboard. A workaround is to put the line (without quotes) "post-clean: 0" in between { } at the beginning of /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg . This section is reserved for global options, and could contain other options. With this option in urpmi.cfg, downloaded packages will always be saved, in /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/ .

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago. http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia and reopen this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. -- The Mageia Bugsquad
