I have built a new .sel file, and included my rpm list in it. I have added the file to <addon> in the xml file. I have run create_package_descr. Yet, every install I do, I get "Could not ... add-on " (can't recall exact words at this moment). In other words, it seems to have a problem with my .sel file. Can anyone assist? -- Jonathon Robison <jrobiso2@ford.com> Ford Motor Company

Did you copy the *sel file to suse/setup/descr? did you add it to use/setup/selections To verify its working, you can add the source in yast2 and start the package manager and verify if it available in the selections list. Anas

You need version 3.0 here :) This in addition to the other things you found meanwhile. And by the way, I dont think you can have something like that: # selections required for installation +Req: default X11 -Req: default is a base selection, and it cant be required by an addon selection. Should be the other way round. Anas
