Additional YaST Package Repositories

From openSUSE

Contents

Third-party repositories


This is a list of currently existing third-party YaST repositories, meaning they're external to openSUSE. These packages are not supported by openSUSE, the packages may not be tested and the repositories can contain beta versions and other bleeding edge packages.

Warning
Use at your own risk. Please make sure you actually need/want a specific repository instead of blindly adding it.

For official repositories (OSS, non-OSS, updates) and semi official repositories (including KDE, GNOME and Java repositories) see Package Repositories.

For information on how to add package repositories see Add Package Repositories to YaST.

JPackage

JPackage contains many Java software packages for Linux.

The jpackage yum access doesn't work very well with yast. Some of their rpm descriptions are buggy and the opensuse package parser fails with a warning. If you get an error, use smart instead, the only tool that seems to handle jpackage properly.

Banshee

openSUSE Build Service Repository for Banshee. This is the official upstream repository for Banshee releases.

The repository provides packages for the open source version of Banshee, not the proprietary version, called Helix Banshee (which may be installed if you installed openSUSE from the DVD/Non-OSS media). If you install the open source version and previously had Helix Banshee installed, you will need to ensure you have any codecs you require (MP3, AAC) installed for the GStreamer media framework, as Helix Banshee included these codecs by default. More information on Banshee, Helix Banshee, and openSUSE.
