KDE gone from apt repositories for SUSE 10.1?
Hi, I'm using apt to manage software on my SUSE 10.1 box. I think up to monday the apt repositories also included KDE while today it is gone. Does anybody know why?

from the README file in that directory: The KDE packages do get developed in the openSUSE project from now on. As a result they are downloadable via the repositories from openSUSE Build Service instead of this location. Please read this page for further instructions: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/User You can find the packages and repositories below http://software.opensuse.org/download/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/ (latest KDE 3 core packages.) http://software.opensuse.org/download/repositories/KDE:/Backports/ (latest KDE applications. They do not require an update to the latest KDE anymore, because they are compiled against the original KDE from your distribution.) A call for mirrors: We do look for further mirrors of the Build Service repositories. Please read http://en.opensuse.org/Mirror_Infrastructure and get in contact with ftpadmin@opensuse.org, if you are willing to mirror these files. adrian@suse.de -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de

Ooops, sorry, I just noticed that apt wasn't able to download the kde package lists ;-)

These don't look like they are usable for apt. Thanks for pointing me to the info, Ingo -- "What're quantum mechanics?" "I don't know. People who repair quantums I suppose." --Rincewind, Terry Pratchett "Eric"

they are usable with smart (and yum and yast), which is the successor of apt4rpm. Have a look here for details: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/User bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de
