 Great! However all that info is readily available, and the 2 pieces of
 info that stopped me from making things work are missing on that page:

 "For Leap 15.0, you need to install it from 'hardware' repo. One click
 installation is also available"

 Ooops, not so. The hardware repo does not have libgpiod for any ARM
 because it's disabled!!, and I dare say most such boards do not run
 x86...

For build power reasons i had added arm but disabled it by default.
Packages that need arm builds (e.g., raspberrypi-firmware) can then
enable it as needed. For Leap 15.1 please help ensure that libgpiod gets
included in the distro, then we won't need extra builds in hardware.

Cheers,
Andreas

The problem was there was no Leap 15.0 ARM repo, I asked this morning to get it 
added. ;)

Thanks.
Yes, some packages are disabled for ARM, not sure why.

You're the libgpiod maintainer, so you can check those boxes yourself.
I've done it for you now.

In any case, libgpiod is in Factory, so Tumbleweed users are not
affected by whether or not it's built in hardware repo.

Andreas

Indeed, I will ask to get the hardware repo building for ARM.
