ConvertAll is a very handy unit converter which will turn mm to inches, light years to miles. and just about anything in between. Zypper can't find it. I have downloaded a .tar.gz file. I have unzipped the tar.gz. file, but zypper can't seem to deal with that either. What must I do to install it?
You like it the hard way, dont't you?
I find things like that at opensuse download https://software.opensuse.org/ There is a search mask, type "convertall"
Remember Suse is moving towards SUSE SLE.
There you will find several options to crash your system, so make sure, you know what you are doing.
I use the German version of openSUSE, convertall is listed under "Versuchspakete" which I translate to "experimental packages".
"Experimental!" You have been warned
A bit looking around at "Expert Download" at openSUSE leap 15.3 brings you to SUSE SLE "Manually add repository" which again leads to.
