DeVeDe

On this page: https://software.opensuse.org/package/devede It says, “so its dependencies are really small” but that it does require MPlayer.

When looking for MPlayer, I was referred to an RPM download page, so I downloaded it. I went to install it:

 $ sudo rpm --install *layer*
warning: gmplayer-1.2.r38304-pm152.2.3.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 1abd1afb: NOKEY

        libx264.so.161()(64bit) is needed by MPlayer-1.2.r38304-pm152.2.3.x86_64

So my question: How can I install DeVeDe?

You do not need to download any package.
You need only the Packman Repo for installing devede.

zypper se -s devede
Repository-Daten werden geladen...

S | Name        | Type       | Version          | Arch   | Repository
--+-------------+------------+------------------+--------+-----------
  | devede      | Paket      | 4.16.0-pm153.3.4 | noarch | Packman
  | devede      | Quellpaket | 4.16.0-pm153.3.4 | noarch | Packman
  | devede-lang | Paket      | 4.16.0-pm153.3.4 | noarch | Packman

Same for Leap 15.2.

Install with zypper?

zypper in <path-to-the-rpm>

That’s weird:

$ history|grep devede
  511  rpm -q -a|grep -i devede
  513  sudo zypper install devede
zypper install devede
  522  sudo zypper se -s devede
  523  history|grep deved

I’d have thought line 513 would have done the job. I got an update failure message. This time, it installed. I must have done something strange. Thank you!

Post:

zypper lr -d

zypper se -s devede

devede is installed now.

P.S. It’s Leap 15.3 now. I upgraded, hoping it might clear this issue. Now I can’t print.

Where do you get this package???

In Leap 15.3:

devede_ng.py --help

Now all I have to do is add the 15.3 repo to my zupper database. Thank you!

I upgraded to 15.3 and devede can’t be found anymore and it’s not installed at all. It’s probably the add-on we-discourage-its-use repo, the name of which I am forgetting.

$ sudo zypper install devede

This is LEap 15.3. When I use YaST > Software > Software Management and use devede in the Search filed, it lists two packgaes at right: devede and devede-lang. When I then check the Versions tab below, that tells me that they are available from Packman.

Thus, when you have a proper Packman repo configured, you should be able to install it.
