again, as a relative suse newbie, i'm wondering what people consider the *fundamental* package management tools in opensuse/SLES/SLED. from a long history with red hat/fedora, i can do anything i want with "rpm" and "yum". i'm not a big fan of graphical front ends, when those two commands will do pretty much everything i need. when i recently got into debian, my first reaction was ... what the heck? dpkg. apt-get. aptitude. dselect. etc, etc. so i learned the minimum of what i needed, and that was fine. with suse, so far, i'm working with "rpm" and "zypper". david rankin highly recommended installing "webpin" so, in a nutshell, what do people consider the must-have package management utilities for suse systems? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
