# pkgos-fetch-fake-repo(8)

prepear repository(folder) which contain Packages.gz and Sources.gz files of target distribution.

## NAME

pkgos-fetch-fake-repo - prepear repository(folder) which contain Packages.gz and Sources.gz files of target distribution.

## SYNOPSIS

**pkgos-fetch-fake-repo**

## DESCRIPTION

**pkgos-fetch-fake-repo** prepares a /etc/pkgos/fake-${TARGET\_DISTRO}-mirror folder with Packages.gz and Sources.gz files so that we can later on use the madison-lite script when using pkgos-parse-requirements. Indeed, using rmadison for this task is a way too slow, considering the average amount of dependency in a typical OpenStack component.

## OPTIONS

The **pkgos-fetch-fake-repo** does not take any options.

## BUGS

No known bugs.
