Sources of RPMs I've used:
Packman: http://packman.links2linux.de/ Great for media stuff like Xine, MPlayer and Transcode. Essential if you want to watch DVDs. Kept very up to date.
Karol Pietrzak's sourceforge site: http://suserpm.sourceforge.net/ Not updated so often, but some useful stuff.
The 'people' directory of ftp.suse.com has some things in development. Use a mirror, though -- it's a lot faster. mfabian, for latest freetype and font-config (lots others), meissner, for Wine, kssingvo, for CUPS and of course mantel for testing kernels.
And thanks to all the guys who have created these RPMs and made them available. Saves a lot of time downloading, configuring and making. Cheers!
Jason, all the above repository can be accessed from 1 location: ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/SuSE/8.2-i386/ The names of the directories refer to the sites/locations you mentioned.
Doesn't help with your dependency issue, but I've had little or no probs with these sites. Richard has mentioned Apt4RPM. HTH,
Jason

Just got finished installing SuSE 8.2...very nice. I was wondering if there was a repository such as apt-get in Debian or urpmi in Mandrake for SuSE packages that I could use. I have found usr-local-bin.org in the archives for some packages that I want, but wanted to know if there was something to address other software as well as helping with dependency resolution. Any tips to someone new to SuSE are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
