YaST package repository

Şuraya atla: kullan, ara


Uyarı! YaST prior to SUSE Linux 10.1 fully trusts installation sources and does not perform any kind of authenticity verification on the contained packages. So be careful when adding installation sources on the Internet.


A list of currently existing third-party YaST repositories. Novell cool solutions have described extensively how to use them.

Where it says ftp.suse.com you must look up a mirror here to get to the actual directory. This is because ftp.suse.com itself is limited in bandwith and users. Always use a mirror.

Hosted on ftp.suse.com and mirrors

  • International mirrors for the released versions. Just pick one and add it as a source.
  • Mirror for the development build. Just pick one and add it as a source.
  • Installing Java on SUSE Linux.
  • Current KDE versions can be installed for released SUSE Linux distributions. You need to add the SUSE_Linux_your_version/ directory to the YaST source manager. The directories are as follows:
  • Current versions of mozilla.org projects (use 10.0 for stable releases and experimental/10.0 for pre-releases): On a mirror directory /projects/mozilla
  • Misc contains various other smaller applications.

Installation sources for a complete SUSE experience

There is one installation source that can be added which will give you almost everything the boxed version has to offer. Depending on the mirror you are using, the first part may be different. The directories are:

Version:
10.1
Version:
10.0

It is not needed if you have the retail boxed version. Here are the mirrors for openSUSE and for SUSE.

Update Packages with new versions

Generally, SUSE does not provide update packages with newer versions in the official update tree. Mainly for stablity and security reasons updates are usually just from v1.2.x to v1.2.y. However, there are many users who want or even need new versions (like v1.2.x to v2.6.y) to use with the official tree anyway. Some SUSE developers create and build new version and place them here:

Please read this README before updating with these packages.

Update Packages without a YaST Repository

  • Various projects provide RPMs without a YaST repository.
  • The Kernel of the Day is the most recent SUSE Linux kernel.

External YaST Repositories

These repositories are not under the control of a SUSE employee. If you are interested in creating a repository for your site, read the Installation Sources manual for information.

To add the External YaST Repositories, open YaST, go to Change Source of Installation and press Add. There, first select the protocol and, on the next page, enter the server and the directory as listed below. Make sure that the directory matches your version (e.g., do not use suse/10.0 if you actually have SUSE 9.3)

You may also use /usr/bin/installation_sources to add/remove/show repositories from command line.
