pin 0.36 - package info for FlightGear ------------------------------------------------------------------ *** rpm info ------------------------------------------------------------------ Name : FlightGear Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.9.10 Vendor: SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Nuernberg, Germany Release : 29 Build Date: Mon Nov 27 16:29:57 2006 Install Date: Tue Jan 2 18:32:24 2007 Build Host: bingen.suse.de Group : Amusements/Games/3D/Simulation Source RPM: FlightGear-0.9.10-29.src.rpm Size : 8892702 License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Signature : DSA/SHA1, Mon Nov 27 16:36:13 2006, Key ID a84edae89c800aca Packager : http://bugs.opensuse.org URL : http://www.flightgear.org/ Summary : FlightGear Flight Simulator Description : The Flight Gear Flight Simulator project is a free, Open Source, multi-platform, cooperative flight simulator development project. The package seems to have disappeared from the Installation sources I have (and pin confirms this as their is not listing for the CD/installation source via pin). However, from http://rpm.pbone.net: OpenSuSE ftp.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/noarch/FlightGear-data-0.9.10-23.noarch.rpm ftp.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/suse/noarch/FlightGear-data-0.9.10-21.noarch.rpm ftp.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x86_64/FlightGear-0.9.10-36.x86_64.rpm ftp.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/i586/FlightGear-0.9.10-36.i586.rpm ftp.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/suse/x86_64/FlightGear-0.9.10-29.x86_64.rpm ftp.opensuse.org/distribution/10.2/repo/oss/suse/i586/FlightGear-0.9.10-29.i586.rpm <note - the last to ftp sites listed are those that my installation source points to - and is non-reachable for some reason today> Since I was unable to update/refresh the openSUSE repo when I started YaST2/Software Management program it's technically not there. I suspect that's why I couldn't find it in the install source - since, as far as YaST2 is concern it doesn't exist - at least not until it can refresh/see the openSUSE repos. Eitherway it's there. Seems to be an issue of the ever change nature of the openSUSE repos and the ability to actually utilize them <shrugs>.
