I've been googling for hours and can't get this one figured out. I'm no purist. If there's a piece of software that works well and the way I want it I don't care if it's KDE or Gnome.
I'm trying to get Dropbox installed. Following instruction on two or three different pages I thought I had everything downloaded and ready to install. There still seems to be some Nautilus dependencies that I just can't seem to resolve. I had the idea of adding the gnome repositories. Loads of links to openSUSE gnome repositories but not the standard repos that are in the regular Gnome installation. Is there some simple way to just add the standard Gnome repos to the list?
12.1? Grab this:
open a terminal and run dropbox start HTH L x
Tried that. It stops because it can't resolve some Nautilus dependencies.
I downloaded an rpm for Dropbox and what it said on one of the openSUSE wiki's were suposedly the Nautilus dependencies. Added the local directory where they are to the repository listing. Tried installing the supposed dependencies into openSUSE but that didn't cure the issue.
According to one place I found Dropbox is suposedly in the repositories but I think it's in the openSUSE/Gnome repositories.
Brute force? rpm -i --force --nodeps dropbox-0.7.1-3.1.i586.rpm L x
I don't know if this will work, but it is an idea. I had installed dropbox on 11.4, and the repository was build/opensuse.org/openSUSE:11.4:Contrib When I look at Yast, this is listed as the repository it is using since it is installed. I did an upgrade from 11.4 to 12.1, and I still am using dropbox without a hitch. For more experienced rpm guys out there, can you go to a repository for 11.4 and just download the single package from there, and then use Yast to install from the download directory? Or will it cause a problem since it came from an earlier version of opensuse? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
