update dependencies OpenSUSE Leap 15.2

Hi.. i am using OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 and would like to compile OpenFOAM on that.. but when i see the dependencies list, they are all provided for Leap 15.1 only and are being incompatible/not found during installation.. and my build fails due to this in the middle.

could u plz update the dependencies and instructions for OpenSUSE Leap 15.2? as this release was made in July of 2020?

assigned to @mark

@Ramkumar47 - are these the ones listed on the main webpage, the build wiki, or part of the OpenFOAM/ThirdParty sources?

There are an embarrassing number of places with things noted down. Some of them should be the "quick entry point", others have been targeted to have version-specific information ... ugly is it not?

the dependencies i figured out are as below. in the main OpenFOAM dependencies, instead of line below

sudo zypper install libgmp-devel libmpfr-devel libmpc-devel

it should be

sudo zypper install gmp-devel mpfr-devel mpc-devel

and in the third-party subset, instead of libqt5-qtx11extras in

sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qttools-devel libqt5-qtx11extras

it should be libqt5-qtx11extras-devel so

sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qttools-devel libqt5-qtx11extras-devel

after figuring/installing these out, i started compiling on fresh OpenSUSE-15.2 with OpenFOAM v2012 and it is going on now.. i will notify here once i successfully compiled or if i face any issue further.

thank you

Hi, i have successfully compiled OpenFOAM and ParaView on my OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 with the slight modifications to the dependencies i mentioned there.

so you may update the dependencies list with the ones i mentioned when u find time. I will close this issue now.

Thank you

Reopened until the content has actually been updated.

@Ramkumar47 - thank you for the followup. Too many people don't bother.

Hi @Ramkumar47 - just making these updates for leap-15.2

If you are an early adopter and move to leap-15.3 this week or next week, it could be good to note if there are any more changes. I am unlikely to update my system until after the OpenFOAM release.

mentioned in commit d5a8ca56

Hi, i am still on Leap 15.2 and haven't tried Leap 15.3 RC yet.. i will update in here once tried with it..

Very nice - thank you!

Hi, i have installed OpenSUSE Leap 15.3 and compiled OpenFOAM v2012 on it successfully.. the changes in dependencies are small and are as below.

In the main OpenFOAM requirements, under system components, the following line

sudo zypper install fftw3-devel libboost_system-devel libboost_thread-devel

needs to be updated as

sudo zypper install fftw3-devel libboost_system1_75_0-devel libboost_thread1_75_0-devel

thats all in the main part.. and i saw that u already updated the dependencies to Leap 15.2 there..

i guess, you are yet to update the third party dependencies.. there also only one change, which i reported earlier i think, which is in the third-party subset, instead of libqt5-qtx11extras in

sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qttools-devel libqt5-qtx11extras

it should be libqt5-qtx11extras-devel so

sudo zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qttools-devel libqt5-qtx11extras-devel

Thank you for ur excellent work on Maintaining such an awesome tool!

Be safe!

also, i recently compiled OpenFOAM v2012 on Ubuntu 20.04, there is a very small typo in the dependencies for the Thirdparty.

sudo apt install cmake qt5base-dev qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools libqt5opengl5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev libxt-dev

in the above line, instead of qt5base-dev, it needs to be qtbase5-dev like in other dependencies in same line

should all be uptodate now
