I asked:
Anyone know the yum (or whatever) equivalent for Red Hat derived

And Tony commented:
I'm using openSUSE which, though being RedHat-derived, has its own
package-management software, with a choice of two programs:
- yast ...
- zypper ...
Interesting to read about ZYpp (yast is a gui front end for ZYpp); it
claims to be better at dependency management than APT. Now, to find
the equivalent of "apt-get build-dep vim-gtk" to revise the wiki, I'd
need to know the name of a suitable package (or the corresponding ZYpp
term) in SuSe or openSUSE and the zypper command to use, anyone?
zypper source-install --build-deps-only vim
==
zypper si -d vim
That assumes, though, that there's a source version of the package
installable from a configured repository (not usually the case, by
default).
zypper search -t srcpackage vim
==
zypper se -t srcpackage vim
will show whether one exists.
If not, you'll need to add a source repository. On OpenSUSE 11.2 I
added, for example:
zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/source/distribution/11.2/repo/oss/
src-11.2
(ar = addrepo)
