That was what I did until, one day....I went to build a perl app, which happened to require HTML::Mason 0.28 or greater. Now, HTML::Mason wasn't available as a SuSE package. Or rather, it was, but it was v. 0.13 of the module. So I went and found an RPM, which, upon installation, hosed most of perl (including YaST, which is based on perl!), and generally turned a fairly straightforward project into a massive debacle.
not a SuSE rpm ???
That was what led me to the "forget RPM, CPAN is my friend" mindset.
but now, your rpm dependencies are tanked.
Now I'm trying to save myself from the wilderness :-)
yup, got to get out of the tank. I have fallen in love with apt-for-suse. -- 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
