Hi. On my SuSE 8.1 system, I have installed synaptic. It gives the following error: could not open RPM package list file /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.gwdg.de_pub_linux_suse_apt_SuSE_8.1-i386_base_pkglist.update-prpm: Problem opening /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.gwdg.de_pub_linux_suse_apt_SuSE_8.1-i386_base_pkglist.update-prpm The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

Run apt-get update from the command line to set up. IMO, you really do not want the prpm's p=patch. Full rpms are better/safer. On Tue, 2002-12-17 at 08:02, Erik Jakobsen wrote:

I had no directory in var/lib called /apt. Thats the reason. I uninstalled apt4rpm and synaptic, and reinstalled again. Still I have problems with the Gnome culprit :-(

I don't either, and mine has been working successfully for months.

These are the package names. Did you install apt4rpm or apt-get? apt-0.5.4cnc8-1cl.i386.rpm apt-devel-0.5.4cnc8-1cl.i386.rpm synaptic-0.24-rb1.i386.rpm
Still I have problems with the Gnome culprit :-(
In my /etc/apt/sources.list, I have no "gnome", only "gnome2".

Thanks. I just had a look there, and could find Gnome. I erased them. Hurraaahh. My synaptic is working now. Thanks for giving me that impulse :-)
