I am trying to find out if I am wasting my time trying to build Incus from source on Opensuse. Is there a reason there isn’t an approved way to do this yet? Am I wasting my time, because it will never work, even if I manage to get it compiled? I got make deps to run without any errors but make still doesn’t work. I’m just desperate to get this on Opensuse because I used LXD all the time when it could run other distros than Ubuntu. Any help is appreciated!
Show your error message(s)?
I took the instructions for Debian/Ubuntu from How to install Incus - Incus documentation and just replaced any package name which didn’t exist directly under OpenSUSE.
That got me:
zypper install acl attr autoconf automake dnsmasq git go libacl-devel libcap-devel liblxc1 liblxc-devel sqlite3-devel libtool libudev-devel liblz4-devel libuv-devel make pkg-config rsync squashfs tar tcl xz ebtables
Then did the git clone https://github.com/lxc/incus, followed by make deps, putting the env variables in place and finally make. This resulted in the expected incus and incusd binaries.

I will as soon as I find out if I am wasting my time even doing this…
I’m not new to compiling from source, but I have never tried it without something that doesn’t already have a src for the distro so to speak
Show home:cmspam:branches:home:MaxxedSUSE - openSUSE Build Service seems to be usually kept up to date too with a 6.0 build having been pushed to it (though maybe not built yet).
ok almost there. Got a bit further with your instructions than I did before.

Can you show go version?
$ go version
go version go1.18 gccgo (SUSE Linux) 13.2.1 20240206 [revision 67ac78caf31f7cb3202177e6428a46d829b70f23] linux/amd64
You need Go 1.21 at minimum, which is what I got here on current OpenSUSE Tumbleweed when installing the go package.
you’re a genius stgraber! got it compiled. Had a wrong version of gcc-go or something.
