I tried to install koffice-illustration.rpm but i of course need koffice.rpm. Then i realized then because of libkexicore.so.0 i will need koffice-database.rpm too. And then some mysql client and....... So why i need install database and mysql-client in order to install illustration? Pavel

You can actually "force" the installation of the one program, but I'm guessing you won't get a good working install from that. KOffice is a complete Office Suite of programs. SuSE separates the parts for their own purposes, because if you were to download from KDE, as an example, you would get one rpm/file with everything contained in it. I suggest you install all the KOffice rpms SuSE provides for the best overall working environment. All of the programs contained in KOffice Suite are interconnected in some to work together. regards, Lee

Point is that koffice.rpm should not depend on koffice-database.rpm. I think it is bug. #154996 :-)

:-) ========== If it's all part of the same office suite, why wouldn't it? Why shouldn't it? It takes all the parts to make a whole, so why would I want just parts of it when I can obtain single items elsewhere not associated with koffice?
just some thoughts, Lee

I agree with the OP. I don't expect a database to be needed for illustration. As such it should not pull it in. -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless

Well, again, I mention, if it's all part of an integrated office suite, why wouldn't it/shouldn't it? Lee

Integrated means "everything works together", not "everything should be installed always". Eclipse is an integrated IDE, but trust me, you don't want to have every single piece of software written for it installed at the same time

Not to be contradictory, but I see integrated much the same way the dictionary does. integrated \integrated\ adj. 1. Formed or united into a whole. Syn: incorporate, incorporated, merged, unified. [WordNet 1.5] But I do agree with some things I would rather have in parts, not as a whole, as in the IDE you mention. For an office suite though, I think I would want the whole. There are some though, that are separate items that work well together, but I wouldn't consider those an integrated office suite. Lee
