This is generally not true for openSUSE. There are repositories for the very latest GNOME [3.8.x], that includes the latest and greatest Evolution and other related GNOME apps. And the newer ones are *notably* better. Quality has improved amazingly in recent versions. GNOME 3.8 http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/STABLE:/3.8/openSUSE_12.3 To add a repo is just "zypper ar {URL} {NAME}". Then you can "zypper dup --from {NAME}" to move to the packages offered by that repo. For LibreOffice there is an unstable repo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_12.3/ LibreOffice-Unstable zypper dup --from LibreOffice-Unstable This provides LibreOffice 4.1 -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
