"bash: urpmi.addmedia: command not found" - Why ???


When I input this text in the cli:

urpmi.addmedia kde-4.4.0 ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/4.4.../2010.0/x86_64


I get this ouput:

bash: urpmi.addmedia: command not found


Some help would be much appreciated.

why did you not use the package manager ?
If you like to install kde4- you are installing a lot of packages , it is easier to use the package manager
Second urpmi means install for me .
Normally it is urpmi package name

Did you run the command as root? urpmi requires administrative privileges.
