I originally sent the below a day or two ago, but it hasn't turned up on the list yet. I think I used my @realbox.com address & that Sourceforge doesn't like this.

Hi there, I don't use RPM-based distros myself - I assume there may be differences between the implementations of them used by Fedora / Red- hat / Centos / whatever & OpenSuse. Perhaps only in the naming of the packages depended upon. You say in your other message "Yast2 will not allow me to ignire this dependency" - is it possible to install using the command-line and pass `rpm` (or whatever) the --no-deps (or whatever) flag? I suspect that having installed texlive / texlive-latex you have indeed fulfilled the real dependencies of LedgerSMB. Assuming none are already filed you might wish to report a bug against the RPM, citing its compatibility against Suse, although I have no idea how that'll be received. Basically, if you can print postscript / PDF reports & invoices (or email them to yourself) then your install of LaTeX is good. IMO your best way forward will be to install "from source" using ledgersmb-1.2.15.tar.gz [1] - this is the most-supported & best- documented method and really is not hard. It should install in a /usr/ local/, separate from everything installed by Suse & Yast. Stroller. [1] http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ledger-smb/ ledgersmb-1.2.15.tar.gz I think. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Ledger-smb-users mailing list Ledger-smb-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ledger-smb-users
