Anyone running OpenSuSE-11.0 that can try something for me?  Click
on this in your web browser:

ftp://ftp.eskimo.com/u/a/archer/aprs/xastir/SUSE-RPM/SuSE-11.0/xastir.ymp

The link will install most of the supporting libs from the SuSE-11.0
ham repository which Xastir needs.  It will also auto-subscribe you
to the SuSE-11.0 ham repository and leave you subscribed afterwards
so you can find more ham stuff if you wish.

It shouldn't be hard to modify it to install more packages Xastir
needs from the main SuSE repositories as well.

Let me know how it works for you.  Come up with a list of additional
packages needed (and repositories they reside in) and send it my
way:  I'll add the data to the file to make it easier for the next
person to come along.

If I can figure out a bit more I may try to get OpenMotif-2.3.1 and
some of the Xastir RPM's set up this way too, but I need to set up
my own repository for that and I don't yet know how to create the
stuff in the "repodata" directory.  I've already modified the
structure in SUSE-RPM/SuSE-11.0/ to correspond with the standard
repository structure.
