Hi,

I just install SL and try to adjust everything just like my
archlinux-setup.

For that I am missing some packages or I would like to
upgrade some :-) 

I tried to set up the other repos which worked except the
linux-ink makes problems; I don't understand/read russian,
so I don't know what I have to write into the sources-list
for apt.

For the missing packages I would try to get other (Suse or
Fedora) rpm-source packages and run them under SL. Would
that be enought? Actually I am missing the newsreader slrn,
w3m and some emacs packages like auctex and preview-latex.

Furthermore I would like to upgrade some packages like
mutt and vim. I suppose I just have to  change the src.rpm
files!?

Another small problems makes the installation of the
windowmanager wmii. There does not exist a rpm and I tried
to install it by hand. Unfortunately it complains about
missing 'X11/Xlib.h'. This should be in some package!?

Maybe, anybody of you have any ideas about solving these
issues!? 

Thanks and best Greetings!
Fabian
