No more ifuse on Leap 16?

English Applications
1

Trying to “furnish” my new Leap 16 installation with the necessary software.

I cannot find ifuse anymore in the repos. In 15.6, it was included in Main Repository (repo-oss).
However, it’s not in Leap 16.

Am I doing something wrong here?

It is available from the Hardware repo:
https://software.opensuse.org/download/package?package=ifuse&project=hardware

Hm…

When I follow your link to the Hardware repo, and click on openSUSE, then I see --amongst Tumbleweed and Slowroll – only Leap 15.6 (where ifuse is already available in repo-oss (Main Repository).

Is Hardware repo an official openSUSE repo? I usually refrain from adding additional repos (except packman due to codecs :-/).

Do this:
sudo zypper ar -f -n hardware https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/hardware/16.0/ hardware
sudo zypper ref
sudo zypper in ifuse

Thanks for the URL to the Leap 16 repo (note to myself: never trust what a web UI tells you).

Still, I am wondering if this is an official openSUSE repo. With Leap 15.x I had everything that I needed in the official repos provided after an install of the OS.

(I’ve read that with Leap 16 the default repos got tidied up, so maybe this additional not installed/provided repo is the effect of it?)

Most likely the maintainer hasn’t submitted it to Leap 16.0 (yet). Not a matter of tidying up. That is not the case.
