Repositories for 11.2

I had to struggle a bit to get Amarok 1.4xx installed on a Gnome based openSUSE 11.2. The reason is that Packman’s 11.2 repository hasn’t been quite updated. So, even if you are on all the latest repositories, there will be a bunch of packages missing which would disable amarok installation. Since amarok is a must in my family (and the family laptop got upgraded to 11.2 too), these are the repos I used to make it work:

# sudo zypper ar http://download.videolan.org/pub/vlc/SuSE/11.2/ vlc

# sudo zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/11.2/standard/ standard

Just in case you want to use the commands as is to add these repos, I am listing them out above. Just copy paste into a terminal, and you should be good. (Some of the repos are redundant there – overlapping mirrors; but it doesn’t matter much).
