Current release is 4.6 Supported releases

Official release

They are located in the repo Application:Geo:OpenCPN I provide packages for:

Note: Due to test and validation I do not (and will not) provide official release for the running releases (Tumbleweed)

32 bit Legacy

I do not provide any more packages for 32 bits architecture.
If you have an old Atom PC which is not 64 bit capable, you will have to stick with on of my legacy build.


The installation of OpenCPN under OpenSUSE is very simple as it's entirely packaged for a 1-Click install from Firefox or Yast.

upgrade from 4.0/4.4 to 4.6

As some plugins have been integrated in the main OpenCPN package, some package names have changed and some have been removed. For that reason, it is simpler to delete the existing OpenCPN 4.x packages (main App, Plugins and libwx in a first step. Then to install the new OpenCPN-4.x which provides 4.6 and all the corresponding plugins. The only side effect of that method is that you will need to re-download the data packages which are quite large.

WX common issue "...WXU_3.0 not defined in file libw ..."

Depending on your previous version of OpenCPN and your previous system configuration, it is possible that you need to force install the libwx provided by the X11:wxWidgets repo. This is the case if you have already installed them from Packman repo.

If you have that issue you will see the following (or similar) error on the console at OpenCPN startup:

Note : You may only see the error when you start a plugin. In that case OpenCPN will crash when trying to activate any plugin.

In both case this would come from the source that you have used for the wx nostl packages.

If that is your case, you will need to make a manual change of source for those packages.
To correct the issue start Yast.
