    Problem with installation of any rpm file in openSUSE
    I get the error message (ie given below) on installation of any rpm file in openSUSE.

    [PK_TMP_DIR|dir:///var/tmp/TmpDir.NUXK6P] Repository already exists.

    What should I do?

    Sounds like the package has been installed before or you have attempted to install it before. You can clear the file and try again

    This is a known issue with openSUSE 11.0+. Essentially it is a fault with the software manager application. So far I have been unable to find a solution other than to redo the system and dis-allow "Software Updater" to manage my system.

    Go to terminal...

    Cd <location of your downloaded package>

    Then

    Sudo zypper install <package exactly name e.g skype.2.2.03.4.rpm>

    It will install it for you...
