OBS for some reason thinks that there is still an i586 package of recode in Factory: osc se --binary recode cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.com/ SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

No Official package for 15.0, but it says there is a official package for TW: The link to OBS goes to Factory, where is no package recode (any longer). The download link has a 32bit drop-down only (!), but this ends in a 404 Error.
