Has anyone been able to get Leap 15 run Vmware as a host, specifically Vmware 12 branch?
Was going to switch to VirtualBox, but those packages in opensuse repositories are back level as well.
Have you tried the packages for virtualbox from virtualbox.org?
Not yet, but that's where I'm headed next. They appear to be built for 13.2, Although they seem to suggest the might work with leap 42.2.
The packages supplied by Oracle seem to install and run just fine on Leap 15. The very last thing mentioned on this page https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads is the first thing I recommend, First import Oracle's key (as root) from the "RPM-based Linux distributions" section. then cd to /etc/zypp/repos.d/ , and download their repro definition file (last link on the line that reads "Users of openSUSE can add the proper repo file". Then install with zypper or yast as you prefer. Before building any machines go to https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads and follow the section about installing extension packs.
