    configure comes with the package it should be in the current directory, you can see the contents of the current directory by typing ls

    If the file is not there you did not unpack everything you need to, or you are not in the correct directory.

    Hi and Welcome !

    Which package are you trying to install? You should install package using YAST only. Your machine must have internet access though.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Not all packages use ./configure, so if you are in the correct directory, then take a look at the README or INSTALL file to find out how to install the package. The package you are trying to install may already be available in the openSUSE repositories, so check the package listing using YAST or zypper.
