I downloaded and installed SLED 10 and I can not find packages to install. If I use Yast2 it can't find anything and checking ftp.suse.com I can't find packages to install. I just can find a few strange packages and that is it! If I'm going to pay $50 per year for SLED 10 I would like to at least know how to download packages I need. I'm looking for tcllib right now, but can't find anything this is getting ridiculous. Can anyone point me to a web page at Novell so I can obtain software packages for my Linux distro?
TIA
Keep in mind that SLED is meant to be an enterprise-level desktop, which means the packages available specifically for it are going to be limited. Don't expect anywhere near the same amount of stuff that's available in OpenSuse.
Also - for SLED questions, you might try the newsgroups at Novell rather than here.
You can use the 10.1 package repositories, since SLED 10 shares the same codebase. Note that you get only support for the original SLED 10 packages. Ciao, Marcus
