Since this is very useful to install dependencies of third party commercial applications that are not distributed using RPM's, it should be probably added.

YaST Qt has a client for webpin in openSUSE 11.2
You can run any yast2 tool in yast2-gtk as well. (and yast2-ncurses if they don't use fancy stuff like images.) There are only yast2 tools. There are none yast2-qt or yast2-gtk tools. yast2-gtk and yast2-qt are solely translation layers that map YCP methods to the underlying desktop API. The exception -- as I've discussed in the yast2-gtk mailing list -- is sw_single and online_update, which are largely coded at the translation layer level. (standing ancient architectural decisions.) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

What yast2-qt does in 11.2 is to have a shortcut to Webpin under "Configuration
Search Packages on Web".
Webpin and the package selectors use different technologies. While the package selectors uses libzypp to search for packages, webpin uses xml rpc to search for packages. It's not trivial to extend the package selectors. I think the mentioned shortcut to Webpin in the package selector is good enough. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
