Install Packages.
Hi. Running SuSE 8.0. With 7.3 there was the Yast1 with the option to "Install Packages". Where is it in 8.0 ?. I need it because I have some RPM's to be installed. -- Med venlig hilsen - Best regards - Vy 73 de oz4kk Erik Jakobsen - erik@urbakken.dk SuSE 8.0.

Ahhh OK! I believe it was answered here on the list a couple of posts ago. Use: rpm -Ihv [package-name.rpm] - for installing packages or rpm -Uhv [package-name.rpm] - For updating packages Use rpm -qa | grep [part og package-name] - to see what version you currently have installed, if that' s what you need. Nope this helps Mikkel

All rpm commands are of course to be made without the brackets around the filename..sorry for not mentioning it in the earlier post.

You could try "rpm -ivh <package-name>". That should work for you. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Got spam? Get spastic http://spastic.sourceforge.net

Welcome to Lost-Feature-Complaining-Thread! You are complainer number #1 trizillion. Many days ago this same question arise here, in the suse spanish mail list and in the security list. Many of us miss _VERY MUCH_ this feature. IMHO the only way to get back this feature is complaining at feedback@suse.com Best Regards, -- [---------------------------------------------------------------] [ Prof. Andres Augusto Nogueiras Melendez ] [ Departamento de Tecnologia Electronica - Universidad de Vigo ] [ Campus Lagoas Marcosende, 9 http://www.dte.uvigo.es ] [ 36280 - Vigo, Pontevedra mailto:aaugusto@uvigo.es ] [ Spain tel: +34 986 812 091 fax: +34 986 469 547 ] [---------------------------------------------------------------]
