Hi :) This is all true but LibreOffice and Evolution are exceptions because most repos have such older versions that most people want to upgrade.
This is generally not true for openSUSE. There are repositories for the very latest GNOME [3.8.x], that includes the latest and greatest Evolution and other related GNOME apps. And the newer ones are *notably* better. Quality has improved amazingly in recent versions. GNOME 3.8 http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/STABLE:/3.8/openSUSE_12.3 To add a repo is just "zypper ar {URL} {NAME}". Then you can "zypper dup --from {NAME}" to move to the packages offered by that repo. For LibreOffice there is an unstable repo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/LibreOffice:/Unstable/openSUSE_12.3/ LibreOffice-Unstable zypper dup --from LibreOffice-Unstable This provides LibreOffice 4.1 -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscribe@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
