Etcher fails to install on openSUSE Tumbleweed 20210711 x86-64. Here's what I get when I try to do so:

$ curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/balena/etcher/setup.rpm.sh' | sudo -E bash

Any ideas?

I got it to install with

curl -1sLf 'https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/balena/etcher/setup.rpm.sh' | codename="tumbleweed" sudo -E bash

followed by

sudo zypper in balena-etcher-electron

Though there was a warning during the install:

Additional rpm output:
chmod: cannot access '/opt/balena-etcher-electron/chrome-sandbox': No such file or directory

What I don't get is why I need a codename for a distro that doesn't use them.

Thanks, that worked!

What I don't get is why I need a codename for a distro that doesn't use them.

I think that's for the repo, not the distro. I'm guessing different builds are made depending on the distro.

I can load the repo with same warning "jdrch" shows and it installs but fails to launch: ` /opt/balenaEtcher/balena-etcher-electron %U
