This PR

  • updates the documentation for openSUSE/SUSE (it is always recommended to install a stable package from the official repositories if it is available)
  • updates the Corpr docs

When using Copr on openSUSE distros, you need to specify which repository you want to use, otherwise the command will fail:

❯ sudo dnf copr enable wezfurlong/wezterm-nightly

The Fedora Project does not exercise any power over the contents of

and packages are not held to any quality or security level.

Please do not file bug reports about these packages in Fedora

Error: It wasn't possible to enable this project.

If you want to enable a non-default repository, use the following command:
  'dnf copr enable wezfurlong/wezterm-nightly <repository>'
But note that the installed repo file will likely need a manual modification.

The same with a repository works:

❯ sudo dnf copr enable wezfurlong/wezterm-nightly opensuse-tumbleweed-x86_64

Thanks for diving in!

!!! note
It is recommended that you install via Copr so that it is easiest
to stay up to date as future versions of wezterm are released.
If you want nightly versions of WezTerm, it is recommended to use Copr.

You may disagree, but from my perspective, I know what is in the copr builds and I don't know what the suse (or any other distro) maintainers may have done to the builds they produce, which makes it a bit easier for me to reason about and provide support if folks are running my builds.

I'd prefer to revert this part of the PR back to what I originally wrote.

I reverted my changes. Since you are the maintainer, I rely on your expertise here. However, when someone reads this note, it may imply to always use the nightly builds instead of the stable releases.
If you are interested in what openSUSE maintainers are doing/modifying in WezTerm on openSUSE, take a look at the packages in the OBS or directly at the .spec file. The interesting part begins at line 105.

Thank you, Wez, for the quick review and the suggestions. I added your suggestions in a separate commit for an easier review, and also rebased the branch. When the PR gets approved, I can squash the temporary commit into the correct one before you merge it.

@nodeg nodeg force-pushed the suse branch 2 times, most recently from dc6596a to 3bf4998 Compare May 14, 2024 06:18
@nodeg nodeg requested a review from wez May 15, 2024 14:09
nodeg added 3 commits May 21, 2024 08:36
These 2 dependencies are not needed when building from source. I tested
this for Tumbleweed, Slowroll and Leap 15.5.

- Mention different flavours of openSUSE and how to install WezTerm
  there.
- The recommended way is always via the official repositories. However,
  this is not possible for Leap 15.5 as of now.

@wez I did a rebase and would appreciate another review 😉
