From: Jim Adamthwaite on 18 May 2010 17:12 Hi folks. On trying to install an RPM (graphiteone-3d-design-2.1-1.rpm) from a hard disk directory with konqueror (via the magic "Install Package with YaST" button), I get the message: Following packages haven't been found on the medium: graphiteone-3d-design Is there something I need to set up in Software Repositories? I could not get it to add a local hard drive directory /home/jim/Downloads as an installation source either. I used to get this a lot back in the SUSE 10.x days, then it seemed to go away. I never found the reason. Now it's back. Any clues please? Jim A.

Jim, I am not a Yast expert, so I ask you cannot you install it with rpm commands? rpm -Uvh graphiteone-3d-design-2.1-1.rpm Or do you encounter too many dependencies? Kind regards, Jan Gerrit

Then you can choose 'Harddisk' as media type and subsequently check the option 'Plain RPM directory'. This should do the trick. Of course you should name the directory somewhere in the process ;-) One hint: what I normally do is check whether the package is available from a 'one-click-install' source (try software.opensuse.org/search). This adds a repository automatically with the advantage that updates will be signalled through Yast. -- Kind regards, JT

You only need the graphiteone-3d-design, or that's according to the package dependencies, although you can also add the other two packages if desired. The only issue would be with the graphiteone-libs package which, during a test installation, failed to install on my 64bit 11.2 system: moray:~ # rpm -Uvh /local/videos/graphiteone-libs-3.1-1-suse111.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libpython2.6.so.1.0 is needed by graphiteone-libs-3.1-1.i586 libqt-mt.so.3 is needed by graphiteone-libs-3.1-1.i586 While I may have been able solve this by adding the 32bit packages, I didn't because don't really want to add too much to the system, especially since I'd be removing it almost straight afterwards.
