OK, but i dont want to create my own packages. When i download an application and want to compile it some dependencies are needed. For example, in Debian I type: apt-get build-dep application Many thanks, Christian
Christian. What I do is the following 1. Open the readme file :) 2. Open yast/software manager and download the dependencies. If they are not there (rare) then I build them from source 3. $./configure 4. $make 5. #checkinstall. That creates an rpm to be use only in you system or in a very similar system. 6. install the rpm Note: the rpm vs make install imho has the advantage that is easier to remove. -=terry=- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
