You might have to do like me and download the tar ball and install it.
sometimes u should try "zypper search" and find out it isnt necessary that u have not to download a tarball and install it ;)
Also... SpiderOak provides RPMs right on their website... both 64 and 32 bit for openSUSE. Not sure why you'd need to pull down a tarball.
Agreed, and I've just installed that for one of my 11.2 machines.
But it bypasses the whole openSUSE software management system.
If there is a security bug, I won't get it on this machine.
Putting SpiderOak in the online update repo is what I'd prefer to see. If that won't fly then it should go somewhere that would allow me to get a security update via "zypper patch".
ie. I believe "zypper patch" is the recommended way to update a server.
fyi: I do have openSUSE 10.1 machine I still run. I'll probably try to get SpiderOak on it later this week. Hopefully I can work out the magic for that.
Right.. I know exactly why you (and I) want the apps in the supported repos... I was thinking more in terms of Chuck's comment about downloading a tarball.... which goes a step even further away from managing your apps through RPM :-P C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
