[openFATE 306526] Pull needed dependencies when installing from a local file
Feature added by: Piotrek Juzwiak (BenderBendingRodriguez) Feature #306526, revision 1 Title: Pull needed dependencies when installing from a local file openSUSE-11.2: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Piotrek Juzwiak (benderbendingrodriguez) Description: It would be great if it would be possible for YaST? to install any necessary packages when installing something from a local file. For example: VirtualBox rpm package needs pam-devel which would have to be installed by invoking YaST first (not everyone knows what to do when they encounter a message saying that they're missing a dependency). So it would be great for YaST to pull the needed dependency or say that they are not available. This would simplify installation of many packages for new users. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306526
