Posted: Sun Feb 16, 2025 10:50 am
Thanks to @Marco FRM
I assume this works for openSUSE Leap.
If someone knows how to select in github the version 8.4.9 according to install the stable 8.4.9, thanks to him
1. Tools installation
Maybe you need to choose to remove busybox-patch to install rpm-build. I choose to remove it.
It's not a problem if some packages are already installed for zypper command.
2. Building
create a folder for your building for storing your work.
go to this folder and execute
Do not take care of the warnings, only the errors. I did not receive any error.
3. Installing
Pause the folding run by 8.3.17.
Uninstall the previous version 8.3.17.
sudo zypper in ./fah-client-bastet/fah_client-<version>.x86_64.rpm
for example in my case
sudo zypper in ./fah-client-bastet/fah_client-8.4.10-1.x86_64.rpm
If the installer ask for you if you want to install a non-signed package answer "ignore".
fah-client is launched by installing the package fah_client-<version>.x86_64.rpm by a post script.
In the kde menu "sciences and mathematics" search "folding@home client" and click.
In the web page https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/machines
click on "fold all"
that's all
enjoy
