Createrepo & reposync packages

Hi guys,

I have a SUSE 10 box and is missing 2 commands:

reposync
createrepo

When I try to search for these using zypper :

Code:
server:/tmp # zypper search createrepo
Restoring system sources...
Not found: Media Exception
Not found: Media Exception
/repodata/repomd.xml (http://<REPO>) is unsigned, continue? [y/n]: y
Parsing metadata for -20131017-145927...
Parsing metadata for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP4...
No packages found.

If I try to install it from another location (web) , it requires me to install dependencies. The dependencies require even MORE dependencies.

Is there a way to get a repo to install all packages required ?

GROG(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   GROG(1)

NAME
grog - guess options for groff command SYNOPSIS
grog [-C] [groff-option ...] [--] [filespec ...] grog -h | --help grog -v | --version DESCRIPTION
grog reads the input (file names or standard input) and guesses which of the groff(1) options are needed to perform the input with the groff program. The corresponding groff command is output. OPTIONS
The only grog options recognized are -C (which is also passed on) to enable compatibility mode; -v and --version print information on the version number; and -h and --help print usage information. -v, --version, -h, and --help stop the program directly without printing a groff command to standard output. All other specified short options (words starting with one minus character -) are interpreted as groff options or option clusters with or without argument. No space is allowed between options and their argument. Except from the -marg options, all options will be passed on, i.e. they are included unchanged in the command for the output without effecting the work of grog. A filespec argument can either be the name of an existing file or a single minus - to mean standard input. If no filespec is specified standard input is read automatically. DETAILS
grog reads all filespec parameters as a whole. It tries to guess which of the following groff options are required for running the input under groff: -e, -man, -me, -mm, -mom, -ms, -mdoc, -mdoc-old, -p, -R, -g, -G, -s, and -t. The guessed groff command including those options and the found filespec parameters is put on the standard output. It is possible to specify arbitrary groff options on the command line. These are passed on the output without change, except for the -marg options. The groff program has trouble when the wrong -marg option or several of these options are specified. In these cases, grog will print an error message and exit with an error code. It is better to specify no -marg option. Because such an option is only accepted and passed when grog does not find any of these options or the same option is found. If several different -marg options are found by grog an error message is produced and the program is terminated with an error code. But the output is written with the wrong options nevertheless. Remember that it is not necessary to determine a macro package. A roff file can also be written in the groff language without any macro package. grog will produce an output without an -marg option. As groff also works with pure text files without any roff requests, grog cannot be used to identify a file to be a roff file. The groffer(1) program heavily depends on a working grog. The grog source contains two files written in different programming languages: grog.pl is the Perl version, while grog.sh is a shell script using BR awk (1). During the run of make(1), it is determined whether the system contains a suitable version of perl(1). If so, grog.pl is transformed into grog; otherwise grog.sh is used instead. EXAMPLES
o Calling grog meintro.me results in groff -me meintro.me So grog recognized that the file meintro.me is written with the -me macro package. o On the other hand, grog pic.ms outputs groff -pte -ms pic.ms Besides determining the macro package -ms, grog recognized that the file pic.ms additionally needs -pte, the combination of -p for pic, -t for tbl, and -e for eqn. o If both files are combined by the command grog meintro.me pic.ms an error message is sent to standard error because groff cannot work with two different macro packages: grog: error: there are several macro packages: -me -ms Additionally the corresponding output with the wrong options is printed to standard output: groff -pte -me -ms meintro.me pic.ms But the program is terminated with an error code. o The call of grog -ksS -Tdvi grnexmpl.g contains several groff options that are just passed on the output without any interface to grog. These are the option cluster -ksS consisting of -k, -s, and -S; and the option -T with argument dvi. The output is groff -ksS -Tdvi grnexmpl.g so no additional option was added by grog. As no option -marg was found by grog this file does not use a macro package. o grog can also handle files using the chem language. The example grog chAh_brackets.chem outputs chem chAh_brackets.chem | groff -pe So chem is run first and groff is appended. The option -p for pic is implied automatically by chem. Additionally, the file uses eqn with -e. SEE ALSO
