Doug, instead of a blunt sarcastic reply:
a nice way to look for artha: - sudo zypper in opi - opi artha
opi searches all the repos like software.o.o does, but only for the running distro.
Now this is new.

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'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 Just found out it searches the Packman buildservice as well.
