I am new to OpenSUSE switching from Ubuntu. Trying to install Steam, running into a couple issues.
Is there some reason why you can’t install packages via YAST using the web links in your software package sites in CHROME?
It appears to only work in Firefox? Nothing on the site says to use Firefox, but Chrome gives me this error when installing STEAM.
Using the links provided here.
https://software.opensuse.org/package/steam
I get this page in Chrome:

If I open this link in Firefox, I am prompted to download or open the file “steam.ymp”.However when installing in YAST2, I get this wonderful error. Which tells me to submit a bug report, but coming from another distro I don’t have the foggiest idea how to run sae_y2logs.
I wish the error message script would take care of this for you, like other programs that report their errors to their own developers…
