of all languages supported by SUSE Linux Enterprise. If you select one of these, the
right frame shows all packages available for this language. Among these, all packages
applying to your current software selection are automatically tagged for installation.
To uninstall a language from your system, select a language from the language list and
uncheck the status box at the beginning of a line.
NOTE
Because language-specific packages may depend on other packages, the package
manager may select additional packages for installation.
Packages and Installation Sources
If you want to find only packages from the specific source, use the Installation Sources
filter. In the default configuration, this filter shows a list of all packages from the selected
source. To restrict the list, use a secondary filter.
To view a list of the all installed packages from the selected installation source, select
the filter Installation Sources then select Installation Summary from Secondary Filters
and deactivate all check boxes except Keep.
The package status in the individual package window can be changed as usual. However,
the changed package may no longer meet the search criteria. To remove such packages
from the list, update the list with Update List.
Installing Source Packages
A package containing the source files for the program is usually available. The sources
are not needed for running the program, but you may want to install the sources to
compile a custom version of the program.
To install sources for selected program, mark the check box in the Source column. If
you cannot see a check box, your installation sources do not contain the source of the
package.
