Another quick question....
if SuSE find that this is a bug in their release of KDE3.3 and subsequently fix it and do another release into the ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/...../supplent/KDE/yast-source directory. Will YAST online update realise that this source has changed and notify me that there's a new version available, or will I have to check manually and perform a manual update?
online update won't look at your supplementary sources
He asked about YaST Install and Remove, not YOU.
I'm sorry, I guess I was fooled by his use of the words "will YAST online update realise....."
Hmm... That does look like my mistake, doesn't it? "Act in haste, repent in leisure", eh?
Use something saner, like red carpet or apt instead of yast to update your kde. It's just much easier.
You keep suggesting the great superiority of red carpet or apt, but you never say why. ...
If I was a hardcore do-it-yourselfer (as regards my Linux installation, specifically), then I'd build everything myself and ignore the distributions, but that's not how I want to spend my time...
Tell you what: install it on a hobby machine and give it a spin, then get back to me. Red Carpet is three rpms, no configuration needed. Just give it a try
As soon as you send me this hobby machine, I'll do just that. Short of that, why won't you enumerate the advantages you perceive with red carpet? Randall Schulz
