Overriding SuSe Defaults.

[Ben Duncan]

Is there anyway to override the Yast2 defaults on software dependencies?

I have installed LPRng from pristine source and removed the standard RPM 
of LPR that Suse 8.0 ships. I did this because of some specific settings I 
need vs the way SuSe wants to control the printer. However, evertime I 
add/remove a package from the CD's, Yast wants to complain and install 
IT's PRINTING solutions (choice of install cups/lprng). IF you are not 
careful and go back un "unmark" it's selection it winds up putting it's 
version of lpr back out there.

I need this PITA to go away and the SuSe 8.0 log (whatever/wherever) that 
may be, to think LPR has been installed.


Thanks ...
