terminals.

Lynx is a console-based, text-mode web browser, yet attempting to install this package via zypper (even with -no-recommends) garners me The following 18 NEW packages are going to be installed: desktop-file-utils feh hicolor-icon-theme imlib2-loaders libIex-3_2-31 libIlmThread-3_2-31 libImlib2-1 libOpenEXR-3_2-31 libOpenEXRCore-3_2-31 libXinerama1 libdeflate0 libheif1 libid3tag0 libjpeg-turbo libjxl0_10 libturbojpeg0 libwebpdemux2 lynx What is going on here? If I wanted image viewers, icons, or desktop config files, I would install Firefox, X (or Wayland) and all that other stuff, but I actually simply want a TEXT-MODE browser for viewing simple html (local and remote) on a non-GUI server system.

Any chance of that, short of building my own package?
