I usually go to 'easy urpmi' (google for its url), use it to find the ftp address and the updates dir and then use an ftp client to download the updates I want to a local dir.

 

Then i create a hdlist.cz with genhdlist, and i add it as an urpmi source.

What I think it is not possible is to add it as an 'update source' so you can do an 'urpmi --auto-select', but im not sure about this, any ideas?

 

**** UPDATE ******

 

I edit the post to answer to myself:

 

It is possible to add your local dir as an 'update source' despiste drakconf asking for a URL, all you have to do is put an 'file:/' before the local address, for example if the files are in /home/user/UPDATES you do: 'file://home/user/UPDATES' and itll add it no problem. Tthen in a console you can do an 'urpmi --auto-select' or whatever you like just as if it was an online updates repository.
