Package repositories:
Additional package repositories - KDE Repositories - GNOME Repositories - Add package repositories

This is a list of currently existing third-party repositories, meaning they're external to openSUSE. These packages are not supported by openSUSE, the packages may not be tested and the repositories can contain beta versions and other bleeding edge packages.

For official repositories (OSS, non-OSS, updates) and semi official repositories (including KDE, GNOME and Java repositories) see Package Repositories.

For information on how to add package repositories see Add Package Repositories.

Warning

Use at your own risk. Please make sure you actually need/want a specific repository instead of blindly adding it. It is also recommended that you stick to the 3 default repositories (OSS, Non-OSS, Update) and Packman. By adding more and more, you can create repository, and subsequently package conflicts.

Popular external repositories

To easily add the popular third-party repositories, see the openSUSE Community website.

JPackage

JPackage contains many Java software packages for Linux.

The jpackage yum access doesn't work very well with yast. Some of their rpm descriptions are buggy and the opensuse package parser fails with a warning. If you get an error, use smart instead, the only tool that seems to handle jpackage properly.

smart channel --add jpackage type=apt-rpm name="JPackage free" baseurl=MIRROR/1.7/generic components=free fingerprint=1F81C0FBC2B822B3DE1233A45C6CFFF7C431416D

Banshee

openSUSE Build Service Repository for Banshee. This is the official upstream repository for Banshee releases.

The repository provides packages for the open source version of Banshee, not the proprietary version, called Helix Banshee.
