Buonasera Marco, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed you say? Sure I can handle that. Here is a tested and working script to build WSJT-X 2.0.0 RC3 on that distro.
First, disclaimers/notes and then, the script: 1) I am NOT a WSJT-X developer, I am just a regular ham radio operator who loves Linux. (I did meet K1JT once a few years ago at a speech he gave, it was fun!) So if you run my script below and it breaks your computer don't blame the wonderful WSJT-X devs, blame only me. By the way I have never tried Tumbleweed before today and I am very impressed, enough so that I may even use it to make a few contacts in WSJT-X :) 2) You do know there is an .rpm binary download of WSJT-X 2.0.0 RC3 available right? So we don't actually "need" to do any of this except for "educational" purposes. 3) The WSJT-X 2.0.0 RC3 build script below is tested and working on a 6 hours old bare metal install of OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (KDE) on my Lenovo ThinkPad T440. For purpose of comparison I also built it on OpenSUSE Leap 15 running in a VM (AWS t2.micro), process was almost identical with just a few small differences that keep it from being able to run as a non-interactive script on Leap (repo update and devel-basis install both need command-line interventions, and Leap compilers are g++-7/gfortran-7), but it still builds fine. Given these positive results, without any further knowledge I can only guess your previous build issues were caused by (as usual) missing dependencies.
