John Perry Hi John,
I went back to One-click and searched for that file and installed it from One-Click. Dunno why it doesn't get intalled. If you install libopensync-python-plugin, it will install that file.

Have you tried the repo method? zypper ar --repo http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system://SynCE/openSUSE_11.0/syste... OR Since, you're using KDE 3.5, you should install the package synce-kde3 on your machine... using the one click install for kde 3 or directly from whichever package manager you like; I will not start a fight about that.

No. I've never gone beyond yast.

This is exactly what I did. I was careful to use the kde 3 package, although I initially clicked on the kde 4 button. But when that failed, I realized my error. I wonder -- there's a note that said to uninstall any synce packages previously installed from source. Would that include packages installed by one-click for the wrong desktop? Maybe I should figure out how to uninstall a package. jp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
