I was in the same situation you are: I wanted to use redcarpet but at this point I didn't want to spend the time necessary to become an expert on it. I just wanted to install KDE 3.2.
Anyway, on a hunch I typed just "rug" and got a list of options. One of those options was "channels". And among the channels was "redcarpet2". I was able to subscribe to it. I wonder whether you might have missed activating rug using the method that Anders suggested. Following the path I took might give you a clue as to what is going on.
I very much sympathize with the problems you're encountering in trying to get a job done with unfamiliar software.
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I had been down that route with no luck. I issued the command /etc/init.d/rcd start and then tried the command rug channels It gave me the message Warning --- No channels available --- The site www-files.ximian.com/redcarpet2/suse-90-i586 just has 3 rpms, the rcd, the rug, and the red-carpet rpms. The site ftp.ximian.com/pub/redcarpet2/suse-90-i586 has a bunch of other rpms, including libredcarpet files, a python-gtk rpm, rcd -devel and -module rpms. Would installing all the files in that direcvtory help. Did you have to do that. Thanks for any input. Mike -- Michael A.
