@Bill_L there is no linux app, your downloading a webpage…

I was trying to do what a web page shows for this type of install. ONly using the wget I ‘downloaded’.

2. Installing Local Packages

Both OpenSUSE and SUSE Linux use the rpm system as their package management system. Let’s say you have downloaded an rpm package using the Linux wget command.

$ wget https://64.34.161.181/download/3.5.0/Linux/nxclient-3.5.0-7.x86_64.rpm

You can install the downloaded package using the zypper install command. Make sure you provide the correct path to the file.

$ sudo zypper install nxclient-3.5.0-7.x86_64.rpm $ sudo zypper in nxclient-3.5.0-7.x86_64.rpm

I’m fairly certain that the redhat DNF command may do it, but I DO NOT want to walk down that road.

there is no duckduckgo browser for use in opensue Leap. SO this is a ‘I want it , but can’t have it’ lost cause.
Ignore this thing conpletely.

Currently running in Firefox on my system.

https://start.duckduckgo.com/

It also runs under chromium.

That is probably the DDG search extension.
There is a DDG stand alone web browser, but not for Linux systems.
I have the DDG stand alone browser on all of my mobile devices.
