I’m wanting to install the latest version of QGIS, it has features that I really need which aren’t in the last LTS release, and I was wondering if it is possible to install an RPM for Tumbleweed on my Leap machine.
The binaries are here and Leap only has QGIS version 3.24 whereas I need version 3.30.
Any advice is greatly appreciated. I’m trying to shift across from Ubuntu and it isn’t as straight forward as I naively assumed. Hahaha
QGIS 3.30 can’t be build atm for Leap 15.4 as the necessary python libs (versions) are not available. So likely trying to install the Tumbleweed rpm might fail or will pull countless deps which will break your Leap.

Maybe you could try the 3.30 flatpak as alternative

Perhaps installing flatpak might be a suitable approach here?

I didn’t even think of using flatpack! Thanks, I’m installing it now.
Let us know how you get on!
