gcc not installing from repositories

English Install/Boot/Login

Hi I’m in the process of trying to get CVS to work and I need libtoolize to do so, I couldn’t get it from the repositories I have already so went online and downloaded libtool2.2 which I am now trying to install. I clearly need gcc (I have just installed 11.0 and so need to get it again). I thought this would surely be on the standard OSS repository, which it was, but I encounter an error.

Error 

Download failed:
File './i586/libtool-1.5.26-23.1.i586.rpm' not found on medium 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0/repo/oss/'

Does anyone have any idea whats up? It seems very odd that grabbiing gcc is prone to error as I it seems so basic I therefore feel I have a large problem somewhere.

many thanks,

Adam

Additionally I get the same error when trying to obtain automake, is there a problem with libtool which I should know about? Or have I somehow corrupted my repositories? I can’t see how, I have done nothing odd since installing Suse 11 (on this computer).

Try refreshing your repositories with zypper (run it as root):


zypper ref -f

Could be your repo cache is out of sync…

You should be able to skip the DVD refresh (if prompted for the media) or put the media in before refreshing.

After refreshing retry the install.

Hope it helps,
