Can someone with OpenSUSE knowledge answer the following questions for
me?
Does OpenSUSE now use systemd (for launching services) by default? (If
yes, from which version?)
With regard to what Fedora would consider to be encumbered packages,
(eg. lame, mac), does OpenSUSE use a 3rd party repo
I'm a long-time openSUSE user. So may be I can answer your questions.
But I can't guarantee that I'm right.
openSUSE12.3 uses systemd. openSUSE 12.1 still used sysinit. openUSE
12.2 I don't know.
Many of these packages can be found in the Packman repository
(packman.links2linux.org/).

I have followed the instructions and have a working system, thanks to

Okay, that I I understood. But I created all the links you mentioned (as

The issue is not that the newer perl will not work, it is that the

fool it by making the links as I described (updated for your installed
