The last RPM I found was
https://download.opensuse.org/history/20231016/tumbleweed/repo/oss/noarch/qemu-ovmf-x86_64-202308-1.2.noarch.rpm
but it is already a new one.

However, I tried with the one from Leap 15.5 and it worked as expected:

https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.6/repo/oss/noarch/qemu-ovmf-x86_64-202208-150500.4.1.noarch.rpm

What can I do from here?


BTW, the previous test command I sent had an extra "-S". This one works with
the 202208 version and fails with the 202308 version:
