Just launch YaST and use the "Installation Sources" module to add another installation source. http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-RC1/inst-source/ and http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-RC1/inst-source-java/ should do the trick. If you still can't find a package, this might be due to our policy to only include open source software. > My question: doesn't it make sense to create the binary rpm's once the > source is available for the distro?
