openSUSE package manager - openfl setup linux

Vjalmr · November 17, 2023, 5:30pm

Hello!

So I have been wanting to use Haxe, and OpenFl for some time now, but I can’t seem to get it to work on openSUSE. When I run the command openfl setup linux I get hit with the message:

Unable to find a supported package manager on your Linux distribution.
Currently apt-get, yum, dnf, equo, emerge, and pacman are supported.

Now this makes sense, as openSUSE uses zypper, but! I am not afraid to get my hands… slightly dirty by the grease on my keycaps, so… is this a script, a part of OpenFl, etc.?

All I am asking is to be pointed in the right direction so I could possibly fix this issue myself.

Thank you all for your time.

This is where Lime searches for and runs the package managers on Linux:

            				Sys.println("");
            			}
            		}
            
            
		if (System.hostPlatform == MAC)
            		{
            			ConfigHelper.writeConfigValue("MAC_USE_CURRENT_SDK", "1");
            		}
            	}

            	{
            		var whichAptGet = System.runProcess("", "which", ["apt-get"], true, true, true);
            		var hasApt = whichAptGet != null && whichAptGet != "";
            
            
		if (hasApt)
            		{
            			// check if this is ubuntu saucy 64bit, which uses different packages.
            			var lsbId = System.runProcess("", "lsb_release", ["-si"], true, true, true);
            			var lsbRelease = System.runProcess("", "lsb_release", ["-sr"], true, true, true);
            			var arch = System.runProcess("", "uname", ["-m"], true, true, true);
