Or did you mean that the current 10.1 apt package does not understand repodata, and its successor will?
Indeed. Try smart from suser-guru (apt install smart-gui) it will do the trick.
Thanks, but I already jumped in front of you. I installed smart with YaST; must have been in the default YaST repository.
From there on you'll be able to install anything you like from e.g the suse buildservice. As example use this url http://software.opensuse.org/download/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10. 1/ and the rpm-md format in smart and kde is nicely installable again :)
Did that in the same leap, and lost quite some of KDE's icons (I know a fix is being worked on, and probably ready tomorrow (qt3) - so no worries).
No repository creation burden on the gwdg.de server anylonger, the server can now just focus on delivering rpms ;)
Yes, that's a big pro. :) Hmm, does this mean that apt/apt4rpm/synaptic will phase out??? Cheers, Leen
