I tried to be a bit ambitious and downloaded the help file by clicking on the "libreoffice built in help" tab: download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/6.0.3/rpm/x86_64/LibreOffice_6.0.3_Linux_x86-64_rpm_helppack_en-US.tar.gz
which yielded an rpm: libobasis6.0-en-US-help-6.0.3.2-2.x86_64.rpm which I tried to install via: sudo zypper install libobasis6.0-en-US-help-6.0.3.2-2.x86_64.rpm.
I received an error message: Problem: nothing provides libobasis6.0-en-US >= 6.0.3.2 needed by libobasis6.0-en-US help-6.0.3.2-2.x86_64
That's because zypper is not trying to install the file you downloaded, but instead is searching on your defined repos and not finding it there. You can create a directory somewhere, put the rpm there, and then add that directory to the list of repositories zypper knows about. Then zypper will offer updates from that new local repo. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
