Hello and welcome here.

While this isn’t the answer you are looking for (I hope it comes soon), I want to point you to the usage of CODE tags on these forums because they are rather hidden and difficult to find when you come here for the first time.

While your screen shot picture is very good to interprete, copy/pasting the text from the terminal right into the post here between CODE tags might be easier to do. Here is ho it works: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/information-new-users/advanced-how-faq-read-only/451526-posting-code-tags-guide.html

Edit: And please tell which version of openSUSE you are using.

You can try installing the missing libraries by typing the following in a terminal


zypper in libexpat1
zypper in libpng12

Or instead of using rpm -i, one can use


zypper install avast4workstation-1.3.0-1.i586.rpm

which will automatically resolve the dependencies and install them.

I didn’t even notice that rpm -i was used instead of zypper…
Thanks for the tip

@hcvv: Thanks for letting me know about the CODE tags, I will make sure to use them the next time.
