Thread: install pgadmin3 on suse10
Hi,
I have recently installed a suse 10 release to my pc and I try to install pgsql and pgadmin3 on them. I do not know much things about linux and I'm a little lost in it. I think I was able to install pgsql from what it said in the install file (gmake, gmake install,...) and table creation test was succesful. I downloaded an rpm package of pgadmin3 and tried to install with yast, but it says that pgadmin3 package had some dependencies and cannot be install. I couldn't find how to install that packages and also pgadmin3 was unable to detect pgsql
I fell a little dump as I couldn't even install two things but I'm lost. Any help is welcome.
Thank you for your time.

Your problem is that you are mixing two install methods. Installing from source, (which is how you installed Postgres) gets you the current version and works fine, but doesn't integrate with your distro in any way, and it is up to you to make sure it works. Installing using the distro's install manager (which you tried for pgadmin3) integrates with your distro, and if there *are* any problems with installing from source they should have been solved for you. But using the install manager means it will try to make sure your install is 'right', and it doesn't know about anything that didn't use it. Basically, Yast doesn't know you've installed Postgres, and doesn't want you to install pgadmin3 without it, because that would probably be a mistake on your part. Either you should uninstall the copy of Postgres you've installed and install a package of it for your distro through Yast, or you should install a copy of of pgadmin3 from source. Daniel T.
