Apt on SuSE 9.1


Hi,

I just got a copy of SuSE 9.1 Pro' and decided to give atp4rpm a try on it. I installed it, and it's working fine, but then when I tried to update GAIM I got a really old version. Obviously my sources.list file isn't very good. Here is what it looks like:

rpm ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/ SuSE/9.1-i386 update security suser-rbos usr-local-bin packman packman-i686 wine
rpm ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/apt/ SuSE/9.1-i386 base

Can anybody with a much better list post it for me? I would very much appreciate it.

Thanks.

Thanks thats perfect.

Although now I am having the same problems that I was having in 9.0 recently. Programs will not install because they are not signed with a gpg key or something. Is there any way I can force apt to install anyway? I'm really beyone the point of caring about the integrity of the file.

This is just one of many problems I have had with version 9.1. The last version I actually liked was 8.2.

Fortunately some Slackware CD's should be arriving in the mail next week...

in the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/gpg-checker.conf change the line 'RPM::GPG-Check true;'
to RPM::GPG-Check no;
