KDE/Build Service/Additional Repositories Fedora

From openSUSE

Locating a repository

Open http://download.opensuse.org/repositories in your browser and find the repository you want to install from (if the repository is for example home:llunak:kde, you need to go to http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/llunak:/kde). Now select the build repository (distribution) that matches your system (so if you run for example Fedora 11, enter Fedora_11).

Adding a repository for installation (and installing from it)

TODO - is there a way?

Installing a single package from a repository, without adding the repository

In the browser window showing the repository for your system, enter i386 if you run 32bit openSUSE version or 'x86_64 if you run 64bit openSUSE version (note that packages that do not depend on whether your system is 32bit or 64bit are in noarch). Find the .rpm package you wish to install and click on it, a dialog asking whether to save or open the file with KPackageKit will appear. Select open with KPackageKit and proceed with installing the package.

Note that if the package has dependencies on other packages from the repository, you either first need to manually install those dependencies or you should add the repository to allow the installation to resolve the dependencies automatically.
