### openSUSE

openSUSE has [dropped][opensuse-dropped] Ghostty from its official repositories
as it does not allow packages to depend on a specific version of Zig. This is a
*crucial* issue for Ghostty, as nearly all new Zig releases introduce breaking
changes, preventing software targeting a previous Zig version to be compiled.
Ghostty is available as [`ghostty`](https://software.opensuse.org/package/ghostty) in the official openSUSE Tumbleweed repository.

[opensuse-dropped]: https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/BMZTZ2DCNWXARP5UD7MECR6PCWOTKR5G/#BMZTZ2DCNWXARP5UD7MECR6PCWOTKR5G

openSUSE users should try to build Ghostty from source instead, or try
installing Ghostty from a third-party, community-maintained repository.
```sh
zypper install ghostty
```
