Expected it to be installed, not installed

[CaffineAddic]

Sorry I don't like snaps at all, just if it's possible
Is there a way to fix it

[nnbyte]

I have the same issue "'python38' not found in package names". I am using openSUSE Tumbleweed and all python libraries are >= v3.10

[AdnanHodzic]

Well that's the problem, in this code block line:

      opensuse-leap)
        detected_distro "OpenSUSE"
        zypper install -y python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-devel gcc dmidecode gobject-introspection-devel python3-cairo-devel gtk3 gtk3-devel
      ;;
      opensuse-tumbleweed)
        detected_distro "OpenSUSE"
        zypper install -y python38 python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-devel gcc dmidecode gobject-introspection-devel python3-cairo-devel gtk3 gtk3-devel
      ;;

Every mention of python38 should be updated to latest python version for Suse (*seems like it's just python3). As now it's trying to install old Python version that's not even there.

Update this string and give it a try, make these changes and re-install sudo auto-cpufreq-installer --install followed by sudo auto-cpufreq --install and it should all work fine. If it all works as expected please create a PR and (contribute to the project and you will be credited for your work as part of future release.

[CaffineAddic]

Updated line changes in this code block line:

case $ID in
opensuse-leap)
detected_distro "OpenSUSE"
zypper install -y python3 python3-pip python311-setuptools python3-devel gcc dmidecode gobject-introspection-devel python3-cairo-devel gtk3 gtk3-devel
;;
opensuse-tumbleweed)
detected_distro "OpenSUSE"
zypper install -y python3 python3-pip python311-setuptools python3-devel gcc dmidecode gobject-introspection-devel python3-cairo-devel gtk3 gtk3-devel
;;
void)

  The following changes had to be made, in the line opensuse-tumbleweed
  
 There was python38 updating it to python3 & also python3-setuptools were being mapped to some older version of the utility causing the install to fail updating it to python311-setuptools fixed it.

[AdnanHodzic]
