Hi,
just upgraded to 11.3 . the new packman repo for 11.3 is not containing many packages like in previous 11.2 . i can’t find mplayer plugin for firefox and also Gecko which were existing in 11.2.
what is the problem with Packman 11.3 repo? and where to get Gecko ,
thanks
It’s not there yet–patience…
If it is a “must have”, just manually get it from packman for 11.2 until it gets populated into the 11.3 repo. You will also need gnome-mplayer. They will work fine until newer versions come along. There are a lot of packages built and maintained by volunteers, so it takes a couple of weeks before they fully bloom with new releases. I see a lot of comparisons with Ubuntu packages “always being ready”, but they piggyback Debian’s repos, and don’t have to manually build each of the thousands of pieces of software.
Actually, if you really need it - add this repo
Index of /repositories/home:/RedDwarf/openSUSE_11.3
Oh, thanks. I’d forgotten about Red Dwarf repo. I installed Gecko media player and it is working here.
