 Sorry to hear you are having such troubles with this! Maybe the factory
 software management is quite different now to 10.3?

No, for me this does not work for a few versions allready...

 Anyway, for me too Install Software right-click option fails. It asks
 for password, reads the RPM database then just craps out and disappears.
 
 However, I _can_ successfully install by going via Preview in KRPMView
 right-click option, and then choosing Install Package with YaST. This
 works perfectly.

Sometimes it does, and sometimes it does not.

 
 Also came across this wiki about creating a repos:
 http://en.opensuse.org/Creating_YaST_Installation_Sources

Thnx..

 Best of luck! I have seen you many times testing and commenting on stuff
 like KDE4 and so on. It's activity like that which helps make opensuse
 even better :)
 Cheers,
 David

Let us hope so.. ;-)

 Well in gui, when in Software management screen, you can click on the
 package then select versions tab and choose which version you want to
 use.

 With zypper you can do it too - from man page:

  install (in) [options] --capability capability ...
   Install or update packages or other resolvables.

   The resolvables can be selected by their name or by a
 capability
   they provide.

   Capability  is: NAME, or NAME[OPEDITION], where OP is
 , =,
   =, =, or  and EDITION is VERSION[-RELEASE], for
 example:  zyp‐
   per=0.8.8-2.

   The  NAME  component  of a capability is not only a
 package name
   but any symbol  provided  by  packages:  /bin/vi,
 libcurl.so.3,
   perl(Time::ParseDate).   Just  remember  to quote to
 protect the
   special characters from the shell, for  example:
 zypper\0.8.10
   or 'zypper0.8.10'

   If  EDITION  is not specified, the newest available
 version will
   be installed.  This also means that if the  package  is
 already
   installed and newer versions are available, it will get
 upgraded
   to the newest one.

 This is typically obtuse man-page-speak to this simple user (gives me a
 headache!) but suggests you can select which version, provided you can
 unravel this explanation.

 David

 How to specify such a directory than?
 I do not mind to move the rpm's to another directory, or change the
 name... but this is not very obvious, if you ask me?

 
 You missed the . (ie. current directory) in the original suggestion?
 
 cd /home/dir
 createrepo .

that is what i thought at first..(did not try ./ as a regular install
though..)

 
 But I STILL dont understand why you can't add folder with some RPM's in
 as a 'plain' RPM directory (rather than RPM meta-data one)? I do it that
 way in both yast software and smart on 10.3. Though I'm not sure if yast
 handles sub-directories whereas I believe smart does.
 Cheers,
 David

What i realy want is just install an rpm from the right-mouse menu in
konqueror.
It offers that option, but after given the root password, it *allways*
ends with the frase: can not find:
/home/monkey9/RPM/huppeldepup-5.3.1-6.noarch.rpm (whatever)

I want to use a dir, where i store all my rpm's, because it is easier to
find what i want there...

If creating a repo is the only option left, i'll have to use that, but
if not, i would rather just use an installer, and install an rpm, if
needed, yes.

You think it is a question about a subdir?
(i thought it was a question of policy)

I will imediately check this..

(about smart: used smart a long time, but in SuSE, zypper needs the
attention now. If there is no other way than to use smart, or it takes
too much time to do it another way, i will be forced to use it, yes.)

 When you are in /home/monkey9/RPM:
   createrepo ./
 will create directory
   /home/monkey9/RPM/repodata/
 and files
   filelists.xml.gz

Yes, you've created a repository with metadata. My command specifically said 
libzypp to avoid autodetection of the repository type and go for plaindir 
repo.

No. It means that if you have a directory containing just RPMs, libzypp needs 
to figure out some details during each start by examining those RPMs.

Sorry to hear you are having such troubles with this! Maybe the factory  
software management is quite different now to 10.3?
Anyway, for me too Install Software right-click option fails. It asks  
for password, reads the RPM database then just craps out and disappears.


However, I _can_ successfully install by going via Preview in KRPMView  
right-click option, and then choosing Install Package with YaST. This  
works perfectly.


Also came across this wiki about creating a repos:
http://en.opensuse.org/Creating_YaST_Installation_Sources

Best of luck! I have seen you many times testing and commenting on stuff  
like KDE4 and so on. It's activity like that which helps make opensuse  
even better :)

Seems smart *can* do so 

 smart channel --help-type rpm-dir
Type: rpm-dir - RPM Directory

Local directory with RPM packages.

Fields:
  alias (*) - Unique identification for the channel.
  type (*)  - Channel type
  name  - Channel name
  manual- If set to a true value, the given channel will only be
  updated when manually selected.
  disabled  - If set to a true value, the given channel won't be used.
  removable - If set to a true value, the given channel will be
  considered as being available in a removable media
  (cdrom, etc).
  priority  - Default priority assigned to all packages available in
  this channel (0 if not set). If the exact same package
  is available in more than one channel, the highest
  priority is used.
  path (*)  - Path of directory containing RPM packages.
  recursive - Search for files recursively.

(*) These fields are necessary for this type.

The way I use is to run program 'createrepo' in that directory which will 
create subdirectory 'repodata' and than add /home/RPM/ to package sources. 

With this procedure YaST etc, will complain that packages are not signed, but 
you can tell to use them anyway. 

Second deficiency of this method is that you have to run 'createrepo' on every 
change otherwise YaST or 'zypper refresh' will not find any changes you made, 
ie. will not find new packages or complain about missing packages.

I remember that adding local repos without hassle to use createrepo manually

is that it was an option before, and it worked with no problems.

 There is the list of all Enhancement requests ever made for YaST2. 
 I remember that adding local repos without hassle to use createrepo manually 
 was one discussed quite some time ago, but it seems to be forgotten. The bad 
 is that it was an option before, and it worked with no problems. 
 

Hmm, i see your point.
quite a list, if i may say.. :-)

It is not as simple as you and Vahis suggest:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ cd /home/monkey9/RPM/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/RPM createrepo
Error: Must specify a directory to index.




How to specify such a directory than?
I do not mind to move the rpm's to another directory, or change the
name... but this is not very obvious, if you ask me?



You missed the . (ie. current directory) in the original suggestion?


cd /home/dir
createrepo .


But I STILL dont understand why you can't add folder with some RPM's in as  
a 'plain' RPM directory (rather than RPM meta-data one)? I do it that way  
in both yast software and smart on 10.3. Though I'm not sure if yast  
handles sub-directories whereas I believe smart does.

Cheers,
David

From man:
SYNOPSIS
   createrepo [options] directory

When you are in /home/monkey9/RPM:
  createrepo ./
will create directory 
  /home/monkey9/RPM/repodata/ 
and files
  filelists.xml.gz
  other.xml.gz
  primary.xml.gz
  repomd.xml
