Installing Jellyfin Media Player on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed

As of today, Jellyfin Media Player is not available on (official?) repos for OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. To install it, I need to first add a repository, kind of like Fedora Copr, which provides this package. $ sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:playablepliable/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/home:playablepliable.repo [sudo] password for root: Adding repository 'home:playablepliable (openSUSE_Tumbleweed)' ......................................[done] Repository 'home:playablepliable (openSUSE_Tumbleweed)' successfully added URI : https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/playablepliable/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/ Enabled : Yes GPG Check : Yes Autorefresh : No Priority : 99 (default priority) Repository priorities are without effect.

Installing Pidgin on openSUSE 10.2

If you’ve been using Gaim in the past, you probably know that it is no longer available now. The name of the program has been permanently changed to Pidgin.
