How to get an overview about installed apps / used repos in open-repos?
During the time using my Jolla I activated a bunch of repos in warehouse. But as I sorted out some apps I don't need anymore or just never used I'm not sure wether I still need all of this repos or not.
Is there any way to get an overview about which apps are installed from which repo so that I'll be able to delete unused repos?
Thought about that very same problem a few days ago. I wrote some scripts, with some information from here, to save enabled repos in a list and dis/enable them in case of updates. These use the ssu command maybe it is possible to gather information about installed apps and their origin with the help of ssu. I didn't looked deeper into that by now.

xllndr ( 2016-07-25 15:48:55 +0200 )editThere doesn't seem to be a direct way to do this, but if you're willing to use development mode, and cli commands it is possible. To list all repositories use:
Or a more cleaner list with only openrepos listed
To list all installed packages from a specific repository use: (install zypper from openrepos if it isn't installed yet)
Where <repo-name> is a name from the list of repositories, example:</repo-name>

Thank you for your help I'll try these commands when I'm home as command line is no fun on a touch device so I'll do this when I can ssh to my phone at home. :)
But you may already convert your comment to an answer. If I have confirmed the commands I'll accept it.
