Ergh! I must have been having a bad day because I tried the links and I couldn't get into the ../suse/i586/ directories to see PostgreSQL, I thought they were broken. Now, I'm not sure if I will go ahead and stay with Mandriva, or re-install openSUSE. I'd have preferred openSUSE because that's what I planned to put in production (actaully that or CentOS). So you've put openSUSE back on the map for me. Thanks for the replies! Next time I won't have the knee jerk reaction ;^) Ken On 10/31/05, Ken Schneider <suse-list@bout-tyme.net> wrote:

Well, that's exactly what I didn't want or need to do. I guess openSUSE isn't for me. I installed Mandriva which includes PostgreSQL. My application is now running. Normally I use CentOS but it didn't like the video card on my test machine (needed the GUI for a demo), so I thought I'd give openSUSE a shot. Oh well.
You could have easily added ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/suse/i586 as an additional YaST source and installed it that way (plus a lot of additional packages). Comparing Mandriva download to the opensuse OSS download is like comparing apples to oranges.
