I didn’t select anything and I didn’t type C for cancel, the script did.

Any suggestion on what I should do?

Thanks

you can always get the latest package from Install package graphics / rapid-photo-downloader

an older version is even included in the normal distro repository.

Thank you

I just tested the install.py script on an up-to-date version of openSUSE Leap 15.2 and it worked. I don’t know what is causing the package conflicts on your system.

Thank you

Syv mixed different repositories and zypper asks now “which should i pick because I have to move packages around to get a consistent state”

Which packages Syv prefers depends on their choice.

I would be curious about the reason to prefer manual install over the existing packages.

For me, it’s for 3 reasons:

  1. I would have preferred to have in a venv
  2. I didn’t know that it was in the opensuse repos
  3. I wanted the “current” version

Thanks

ah ok so no problem with the package then. great.
