This nonsense all began because you were looking for "tuner". You failed to do the very first thing when looking for a package: Is it in the repositories?
No, I did not fail. That was the first thing I did. IT WAS NOT!
The machine I was using, the only one available to me at that moment, said it was not in any installed repo.
I did "zypper search tuner". Unlike others, I'm not about to accuse anyone of lying to the forum. I'll just suggest that you may have misspelled tuner, and failed to notice. Tuner has been in the Main Repo since May of last year.
Then I asked about that Appstream thing, not about tuner. It is still in the subject.
And then I got attacked.
You weren't attacked. People were complaining to you that what you described was not what they were seeing when they went to replicate the problem. As I said, your very first post implies that the AppStream button is on software.o.o It isn't. It isn't even in the next page, rather it's in the 3rd page of the sequence.
Yesterday, if you had done an effective Google search when you were on Elesar, you would have found the solution almost immediately....
And you are lying again, because I said that I googled. I did google on site, but found nothing. What I found was instructions for developers for creating appstream links, not on users on how to use them. I really do wish you would stop accusing me of lying. I did not suggest or claim that you failed to do a google search. I also did not use the word "perfect". Note the presence of the word "effective".
Well, it turns out that your search phrase is as effective as mine; both returned that reference to the Ubuntu forum post in the top 3 of the search results. So, since I am adamant that I will not accuse you of lying, I will merely suggest that you failed to do the second, even more essential, part of a google search: You must not have actually read any of the search results very carefully. If you had, you would have quickly found that Ubuntu forum page, and immediately had the answer to the problem. That link stands out like a sore thumb, because a) it is number 2 in the results list (using your search phrase), and b) it is titled "How to handle appstream:// links in Ubuntu?"
What you did post to open this thread is very wrong or misleading: That post suggests there is a button labelled "AppStream install" on https://search.opensuse.org/packages/. There is not.
There is, and I posted the photos. I'll repost:
I don't need to see your photos because I have my own, remember? I will merely state what is clear: what you are saying here is quite different from what is implied in your VERY FIRST POST, which gives absolutely zero of the steps necessary to get from the start to the page where you find the AppStream button. Do you get that? Let me spell it out for you again: Like so many of your posts in here, what you said is incomplete -- especially when you are opening a new thread. You omitted all the steps necessary to get from the starting point on software.o.o to the page where the AppStream install button is actually found. I really should not have to say this to you, of all people. You have been around here long enough to know that a complete description of the problem is necessary so that people wishing to help have all the steps necessary for them to replicate the problem. It should not be necessary for them to figure that out on their own.
And you have the colossal audacity to suggest that I might have an animosity towards you???????
Because you people have been attacking me since the start :-/
See all above. I see few, if any, posts in here that can even be remotely construed as attacks against you personally. What I do see is reply after reply after reply complaining that you have failed to give all the pertinent information -- and those posts are completely justifiable.
