BUG - SpiderOak Install issue - openSUSE 11.3

English Applications

When I try to install SpiderOak from the openSuse 11.3 repository, I get the error

Problem: nothing provides python-zope-interface needed by python-transaction-1.0a1-1.2.i586

After installing python-zopeinterface from the repository I still get the same error. Below is the snapshot of my console. I feel its a bug and I dont know where to log it other than this forum.

Then I installed pythonzomeinterface and tried to install SpiderOak but got the same error

it’s actually called python-zopeinterface in the repositories so if you install it SpiderOak should install and run, may need install with --nodeps (or what ever zypper option is equivalent).

Definitely a bug

Hi
It’s a known bug Access Denied

Unless you know exactly what is going to happen installing with nodeps
I would not recommend that at all, unless you want a borked system…

Be patient and wait for the fix to appear.

Thanks Malcolm, I would rather wait then doing something stupid and mess the system. Where can I log the bugs? I know I can log bugs for SUSE linux Enterprise in the bugzilla.novell.com but what about openSUSE 11.3?

apologies - my bad

I just downloaded the rpm from the SpiderOak website and it worked fine. I think you can do that if you don’t want to wait til it is fixed. I found it funny that SpiderOak is included as one of the features of openSUSE 11.3 when I couldn’t even install it.
