Can alternative package management tool help? e.g. smart (or smarty, cannot recall). Can these 3rd party package management tool also support directly using source repositories built for yast2?
yes, smart can install from a local file: smart install /path/to/file.rpm and you can create a local repro by putting the rpm files into a central directory and then running "createrepo ." in that directory. You then add a channel to smart: [<logname>] type = rpm-md baseurl = /path/to/<central-directory> I have done both: [pat] type = rpm-md baseurl = /home/pat/Desktop/Downloads you can get help via: smart --help man smart -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 OpenSUSE Linux http://en.opensuse.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
