Joplin Console version help needed

OS is OpenSuse Leap 15.1
Joplin 1.0.201 App Image

I am interested in using the cli version of Joplin. While the GUI is working well on OpenSuse Leap 15.1.
I cannot see how to get the Console Version running. The following is my attempt to install Joplin in the console. Meanwhile the app.Image GUI version works ok.

You might want to report this on the Sharp repository as I’m not sure if they support OpenSuse.
