This means you will have to install the packages mentioned in failed dependencies first.

You can follw the tutorial even without installing and using debian. If you get a line like:

apt-get install package1 package2 package3

replace it with:

yast -i package1 package2 package3

The SuSe 10 perfect setup howto I've written uses this approach.

Hi i found the error of the command.

9.3-i386/RPMS.suser-rbos.
Here i forgot to tell u , i am using x86_64/server .
So i think i need to find the exact path of the apt-libs-0.5.15cnc7-0.suse093.rb0.i586.rpm.

If u do know the path . pls let me know. Thx for u r KIND HELP.

Either you find the 64Bit RPM for apt and the 64Bit RPM repositories or you use yast instaed of apt as i posted above.

The yast solution might be easier. The howto was written for 32 bit linux.
