What suse version?
SuSE-9.3 does not provide synaptic yet, do you need it? (take it from suse=9.2 for the time being and install the rpm with 'apt install <synaptic-rpm>' Hopefully the dependencies are satisfied...
Apt is good enough for an article in the upcoming linux-magazine: http://www.linux-magazine.com/issue/54/apt4rpm.pdf
Yes, this is 9.3, and this is exactly why I've avoided using apt-for-rpm. I used the stock 9.2 sources line at the site, and when I went to `apt-get install', it told me that there were "broken packages" and that I needed to do something like a `apt --fix-broken'. I'm really afraid that it's trying to mix 9.2 packages with my 9.3 system. I thought I was just missing something here, but it looks like synaptic (compiled for this setup) hasn't been made yet, and I think I'm getting asking for trouble to try to put the one for 9.2 on my system. Somebody please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks, dk
