I guess respective repositories are mostly links to the rpm's and separate link to metadata - I don't see any reason to duplicate the rpm themselves
Yep, but it's annoying to use half a dozen different tools to get one single thing installed. Luckily, smart seems to be the key here as it does operate as a superset tool allowing access to almost any repository. In theory, that is. Importing repositories from software.opensuse.org is currently giving timeouts [smart fails silently without explaining btw]. Which reminds me - where is the build service mirror list?
*sigh* can we please stop spreading false informations? the common repos format they all support is rpm-md. (dunno if the apt in the distro is already recent enough. but richard has an up2date package for sure) yast2+libzypp | Yast2, rpm-md smart | Yast2, rpm-md y2pmsh | Yast2, rpm-md zmd+libzypp | Yast2, rpm-md yum | rpm-md apt | rpm-md, apt as most sources should ship with rpm-md files you can happily add them everywhere. If you use multiple tools concurrently, you need to add the sources to each of them. darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-help@opensuse.org
