it is? i just did a "zypper" search and found nothing by that name. ah, but i mentioned early on that i'm using SLES 11, not opensuse. i'm going to guess that a beta version of anything isn't in the normal SLES repos. but i'll remember that package for later for my imminent opensuse system.
Sorry to not be specific,
For 11.0 and newer it's in the packman repo,
For 10.3 it's in the home:/mskibbe repo.
If you don't have 'webpin' installed, do that first. Forget searching with
zypper, webpin is the way to go. Then to find a package, it's just:
23:21 dcrgx:~> webpin hddtemp
3 results (3 packages) found for "hddtemp" in openSUSE_110
* hddtemp: Hard disk temperature tool
- 0.3_beta15 [packman]
* hddtemp-debuginfo: Debug information for package hddtemp
- 0.3_beta15 [packman]
* hddtemp-debugsource: Debug sources for package hddtemp
- 0.3_beta15 [packman]
Then I just use a small script to parse the returned repository to get the
url:
01:01 alchemy:~/linux/scripts> bsurl packman
The URL is: http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/11.0/
To add the repository use:
zypper ar -k http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/11.0/
