------=_NextPart_000_0010_01C71377.E12AE830 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I guess there is no longer a "definitive" source for the Ham Radio packages. They were dropped from the main distro in 9.3 and were put in the "projects" tree off ftp.suse.com by J. Reuter, DL1BKE. There were packages there for 9.3 and 10.0 and are mirrored on many sites. I have not seen anything since the 10.0 packages. I simply repackaged the 10.0 so that 10.1 would recognize them as a valid install source. DG7GT went a step further and updated and recompiled them for 10.1. I have mirrored his package tree on ftp.w1nr.net. Someone will need to repackage them again for 10.2 as they changed the way install sources are handled (again sigh!). Once 10.2 is released, I will try and find the time to repackage them again, but no promises at this point. What really needs to happen is for the openSuSE team to get their build service finished and a couple of the Ham developers need to convince them to make these packages part of the build service. I will be glad to help. Anyone else like to volunteer?
