How to install OBS Background Removal on openSUSE

:~> cd $HOME/.config/obs-studio/
:~> cp $HOME/obs-backgroundremoval-1.1.13-source.tar.xz obs-backgroundremoval-1.1.13-source.tar.xz 
:~> tar -xf *.tar.xz
:~> cd obs-backgroundremoval-1.1.13-source
:~> ls
:~> cat README.md
:~> cat docs/BUILDING-OPENSUSE.md

In the openSUSE README you will find the commands you need to install the Background Removal plugin for OBS, you can create a script and execute it.

vi install.sh

And you put the following in it:

#!/usr/bin/bash
sudo zypper install -t pattern devel_basis
sudo zypper install zsh cmake Mesa-libGL-devel \
  ffmpeg-6-libavcodec-devel ffmpeg-6-libavdevice-devel ffmpeg-6-libavformat-devel \
  libcurl-devel Mesa-libEGL-devel \
  libpulse-devel libxkbcommon-devel
sudo zypper in cmake gcc12-c++ ninja obs-studio-devel opencv-devel qt6-base-devel zsh curl-devel jq

cmake . -B build_x86_64 \
  -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc-12 \
  -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++-12 \

  -DENABLE_FRONTEND_API=ON \
  -DENABLE_QT=ON
cmake --build build_x86_64
sudo cmake --install build_x86_64 --prefix /usr
