Can you provide a single URL that can reliably be retrieved in order to discover an up-to-date record of which version of Rosegarden is current in openSUSE? It can return either HTML or some parsable machine format. The link you just gave includes rather a lot of different entries, and it isn't directly obvious how I would extract the most widely available current version (or "a stable version" and "a bleeding-edge version") from it. I last used SuSE before they capitalised the U, and I have no idea how repositories are organised for it these days.
Maybe they can use something like: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/openSUSE-stable/repo/oss/suse/i586... (latest stable release)
and http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/suse/i586/?P=rosegarden*
What we have in Factory
to find the appropriate, official rosegarden version? Of course on OBS there might always be a newer version than that.

The biggest problem I see is 11.2 is current but rosegarden4-1.7.3 is a kde3 app and buggy as well so presenting such an old version on rosegardens web site is counter productive to promoting openSUSE as an up to date distro. I've just had a brainwave, I've copied the 11.2 one click install link and I will ask them to post that. Thanks Dave P
