Hello,
I am new to this list. Noticed, that all KDE supplementary resources moved to opensuse.org
Now I am unable to update my KDE (SuSE 9.3) any more. (was interested in 3.5.3)
The solution described at
http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/User
does not work for 9.3 + YaST. Yast needs the yast-sorurce folder (and it's content) to add a new installation source. How to solve this?
BTW: where have the KDE supplementary packages for 9.2 gone? I think, 9.2 is still not discontinued ...

I believe you need to install Smart or Yum now for 9.3 in order to use the repos. I don't agree with the decision to effectively terminate for Yast support in 9.3, but there's not much that can be done about it now I guess. Myself, I will be upgrading my main system to 10.1 in the next few days, so I have delayed upgrading to 3.5.3 until after I upgrade. I have upgraded some test machines to 10.1 and found Yast is broken. Well, not broken, SUSE has changed the backend of Yast to use zen which is definitely broken. It can take zen a minimum of 14 min at 100% CPU thrashing just to start up!!! Completely unacceptable for me - especially on a laptop. The solution has been to install Smart (made by the guys that bring us the Guru repos). Alvin -- Please reply to the list and not my email address. Thank you.
