Click install](openSUSE Software)
in at least 99,99% of all cases there shouldn’t be any difference.
Yes, if you search the Forums you might find the one in whatever instance when there was a difference but chances you won’t find those threads.

hello dear TSU - great to hear from you…
- i followed to this page
https://software.opensuse.org/package/clipgrab
which installed / used a one click version
a repository of leap 42.3 home:regataos
but i was not very sure if this is safe - and if i could trust this operation / process of installation:
see the following protocol;

what can i do - shoud i use a one click installation - or can i do a installation via console!?
When you go to Search,
packages can come from a variety of different repositories…
They can be (in descending order of reliability)
- The default distro repos
- Repos specific to something which has not yet been added to the distro repos, but managed by openSUSE/SUSE
- Community repos which are not managed by openSUSE/SUSE
- Private repos, owned and managed by individuals but deployed on an openSUSE/SUSE server (typically obs)
The repo you’re questioning is one of the last category I listed above, so there is an increased risk in anything from a private repo, but in general I’ve usually not found anything that harmed my system… at worse, packages might not work… but keep in mind that a good amount of malware in the world is not intentional, and happen because of unintentional mistakes.
If you have a choice,
It’s better to choose from a repo managed by openSUSE/SUSE or a recognized Community.
HTH and IMO,
