If you aren't interested in doing weird technical stuff, ximian gnome is now suse 7.3 and suse 8.0 compliant. You can fairly easily go to www.ximian.com follow the instructions, and end up with a good working gnome1.4 with evolution 1.0.8. Ewan On Sat, 2002-06-29 at 10:36, Bret Waldow wrote:
I'm still playing with this, and I have some more questions.
I started again, with the idea of going "SuSE - only". It doesn't seem possible.
I downloaded the SuSE - Gnome updates for 7.3 (cable modems are great!), but then ran into the question, how to install them? I don't want to just "rpm -UhV *.rpm" as not all of the packages are installed now - I don't want them all.
But how do I resolve the dependencies? In fact, I've spent the day doing this by hand, focusing on Evolution and Gnome-pilot, and may almost be there. But is there some easy way I don't know about? I"ve been running "rpm -Uhv --test etc.rpm" and getting some dependencies filled from rpmfind, as the SuSE Gnome packages don't supply them (which seems pretty odd - what are they thinking of?).
Also, not all of the packages seem available from SuSE Gnome - Gnome-pilot doesn't seem to be there. It wasn't in 7.3, and I don't see it in the updates.
So, I'm wondering if I'm going about this right. Can you enlighten me about how to approach this?
