Time to install a simple program on openSUSE Tumbleweed. Oh, it needs X version of something else.
Let's see... oh. The versions of X on tumbleweed are too new. Let's check Leap (including 15.3). Oh... these are all too old.
Guess I'll die. 🤷
Turns out the package I need /was/ available on Tumbleweed but it was removed for some reason.
Also turns out more gaps in package of Y version I need are missing. XD
@doxxy For those who are interested, we needed version 68 of libicu. It somehow magically went poof from the internet! OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.

The OpenSUSE package just went poof!
