It should install as it seems like jsoncpp is available in SUSE repos for tumbleweed: https://software.opensuse.org/package/jsoncpp
Thanks. It seems so, but apparently the user is thrown into a maze there, where several different routes all lead to a dead end, at least under the new Thumbleweed-Slowscroll, which is supposed to be a little more stable and reliable than Thumbleweed: 1) The "Standard" route downloads a "One-Click Install" file that can't install, 2) The "Add repository and install manually" route fails at the stage of adding the repo with the error message "The requested URL returned error: 404", and 3) The more promising "Grab binary packages directly" route downloads apparently a source file named "jsoncpp-1.9.5-2.7.src.rpm" which can't be installed either. Maybe I should now try another distro that uses RPM packages to install software.
I'm not sure why jsoncpp wouldn't get installed. But, usually zypper should install it properly. I'll not recommend to switch distro because only Spotube doesn't work 😅 You can always use the Flatpak version. Which will work fine anywhere.
Also, you could try installing jsoncpp-devel
package. It is usually required when building from Source but pre-built bin doesn't require it. But still give it a try
OK, thanks. My regular OS is Debian Trixie with KDE Plasma 5.27 actually. I'm just testing if I can move to Plasma 6 quicker by switching to some other distro like OpenSUSE, which has a number of pros and cons, and this is just one of a number of cons. ;-)
Same bug here. Tried with jsoncpp-devel and it won't work. Still, by replacing the package repo won't fix it either.
Is there an existing issue for this?
Current Behavior
Installation fails because "nothing provides jsoncpp" although I've installed the closest possible match: libjsoncpp25
Expected Behavior
The package should install finding all dependencies
Steps to reproduce
sudo zypper install "Spotube-linux-x86_64.rpm"
Operating System
OpenSUSE Linux
Spotube version
v3.6.0
Installation source
GitHub Releases (Binary)
