Installation on SUSE

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am not sure that this is a bug. I think this might have more to do with
my inexperience with the kinks of linux, but I cannot get pychess to
install on the fairly unaltered OpenSUSE 10.2 distribution.

After opening the RPM file and clicking Install I get this message:

Dependency Resolution Failed

Unresolved dependencies:
Installing pychess-0.6.0.final-1.noarch[Local packages]
There are no installable providers of pygtk2-libglade for
pychess-0.6.0.final-1.noarch[Local packages]

Unfortunately I have no idea what this means. I think I may have to install
some additional things, but I looked around Yast and either I couldn't find
what I needed to install (according to the website I downloaded the RPM) or
it was already installed.

I am sorry if this is not the right forum for this error, but I would like
to run this app but I can't get past the install.

Thanks.

Hm, I'm afraid the bug is due to different package names on fedora vs SUSE.
What you could do:
    * Get somebody to pack a SUSE rpm or do it yourself. Should not be very hard
actually. I can probably help you much of the way.
    * Install pychess from the tarball without an RPM.
    * Find out what the pygtk glade bindings package is called in SUSE, install it
and install pychess with some kind of --ignore-dependencies flag.

You might also ask in some SUSE related forum.
Good luck :)
