It hasn’t been installing for 4 days now… Oh, and yes, that would be because it hasn’t downloaded for 4 days…

Edit: Yes, I suppose I could just do:

:~> wget http://download.opensuse.org/factory/repo/oss/./suse/noarch/bundle-lang-gnome-en-11.2-14.2.noarch.rpm

but isn’t that something zypper is supposed to do?

It certainly appears as if I can download the package but zypper still won’t install it. I think zypper is drunk again…

AFAIK syntax is not correct. It can be done like this:
Open a terminal window

cd ‘to folder where bundle-lang-gnome-en-11.2-14.2.noarch.rpm was saved’

su -c ‘rpm -iUvh bundle-lang-gnome-en-11.2-14.2.noarch.rpm’

Good luck

My Cooker partition is borked after latest install. I tried fresh install but after I [at least I think I did] added nVidia driver packages it is borked again. I need to read up on bugs and frequent problems and such. Unfortunately I won’t have much time for this until next week. Sometimes one needs to RTFM but doesn’t have much free time.

And this is why I maintain partitions with stable versions of Mandriva and openSUSE.
