Re: orgmode & pdf-tools

[AW <alexander.willand@t-online.de>]

. . .   A N D  openSUSE!

Links of the form [[./foo.pdf::3]] still are being opened on p. 1 instead of 
page 3. For description of my issue, see my report from April 3rd below. 

Me, being a user, I can't solve this. I'm on openSuse, current Tumbleweed. I 
managed to install PDF-Tools properly, after I found out that you need to 
install Cask before loading down the package via Melpa.

Those lines below from my .emacs work in other installations, as the 
maintainer of org-pdfview.el wrote. 
(https://github.com/markus1189/org-pdfview/issues/10)

I build a short .emacs, only the necessary links and packages, to orgmode and 
PDF-Tools. No success. 

IS SOMEBODY READING THIS WHO USES openSUSE ?

I tried but failed to find an error with edebug, but this seems way beyond my 
skills.
