How to install tuxpaint to SUSE linux enterprise 10.0???
Hi,
My son just loves this, but we had to get a new computer. I don't know much about linux so I can't figure out how to get this to work. I installed the file and whenever I click "Install" from Software Installer it says, "Dependency Resolution Failed Unresolved dependencies:
There are no installable providers of tuxpaint
Marking this resolution attempt as invalid."
How do I get it to work, and could you explain it in a way i would understand?   |

Hi and welcome to LQ.
You can download the tuxpaint rpm from here and install it manually using rpm e.g.
Code:
#rpm -Uvh tuxpaint-0.9.15b-14.i586.rpm
If rpm complains of any missing dependencies download them from the same site. Post back if you need more help. |

The example I posted above shows how to install tuxpaint manually using the rpm command. A more elegant way, which will resolve all dependencies automatically is to add an openSUSE 10.1 mirror to your YAST software sources and then use YAST to install tuxpaint. - Run YAST -> Software -> Software Repositories
- The protocol for the new source should be http. The server name is download.opensuse.org and the direcory is distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/
When the mirror has been setup, you can then install tuxpaint by going to YAST -> Software -> Software Management. Run a search for Tuxpaint and then install it. |

When I click next after typing in the server name and directory it says this:
Curl error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/suse/setup/descr/DVD-Asia-10.1-67.noarch.sel':
Error code: HTTP response: 403
Error message: The requested URL returned error: 403
What do I do? |
