I am very anxious to know how to install a package, which is in my downloaddirectory, and for which, according to packagekit a dependency is not fulfilled, while the file needed is provided by a package with a higher package number, or by a package with another name. man rpm search for "--nodeps"
Indeed.
First, try a symlink old-dependency -> new-dependency in the same folder. L x
Sure sounds good, and must be simple for someone who knows what you are talking about. But i have no idea how to do that. Maybe it is possible to show the command? The extensive manual of rpm has enlightened me about what to do (if i get it right): rpm {-i} [--nodeps] --dbpath ~/oddball/Downloads/pkgfile (if i want to install) or rpm {-u} [--nodeps] --dbpath ~/oddball/Downloads/pkgfile (if i want to upgrade) would this be correct? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
