2) if so, what is the workaround?

# dnf  install waterfox-6.5.9-4.1.x86_64.rpm

Not sure why you're installing it manually to be honest.


$ dnf provides waterfox

No matches found. If searching for a file, try specifying the full path or
using a wildcard prefix ("*/") at the beginning.

Without listing the repos you have and the contents of the
waterfox repo, how does this tell us anything useful? :/

We already know that it is in a third-party repo in the
opeunSUSE Build Service, so I would expect that you have it
enabled.  If you don't for some reason, then why you don't
might be relevant.  Having to guess at things just makes
this a painful process (and makes me wonder why I bother).

I can only guess that your earlier 'Open SUSE pulled a
"NOTTRUSTED".' comment is related, but I showed that it
worked fine for in a Fedora 41 container and even tried to
provide some details as to why you might have gotten
whatever failures you got.  You didn't respond to any of
those details nor provide any further information about the
actual failures you had.

It would be much better for everyone if you provided more
actual details.

Here, again and in more detail, are the steps I took in a
Fedora 41 container which show that adding the third-party
waterfox repo and installing waterfox work as expected.

I am not trying to imply anything about whether this is a
trusted repo or not.  I have no interest in running waterfox
myself, so I don't need to evaluate whether I want to get
the package from this repo or not.  That's for you to
decide.

Hopefully, you'll read that carefully and if any of the
commands are unclear you can check the documentation for
them, then get back to us with specific questions about the
command and/or how and where things went wrong for you,
showing the steps you took, the output you got, and why it
may differ from what you expect.  Don't make us guess,
please.



Hi Todd,

And thank you for all your assistance.

All the information necessary to assist me with my question
was provided in my initial post and subsequent posts.
Somewhere you got lost or confused.   Would you like me
to go over each of your points above and explain what you
missed point by point?
