So what is opi, can you describe it? What does it do? Is it better/different than webpin?
opi is a perl script, actually quite readable.
I prefer reading documentation ;-) I tried reading the source, it doesn't tell me much. Well, that it calls obs, so probably installing the obs package is necessary. Perhaps an account, too.
I've only used webpin years ago, yet these days I hardly use software.o.o anymore since opi does exactly what I wanted: show me if someone builds package X for the running system. It even provides installing skype, vscode, the packman codecs. And, it asks you, after installing X, if you want to keep the repo X comes from active. https://github.com/openSUSE-zh/opi
I found a readme.
