if "other repositories" means not the base openSUSE Tumbleweed repos, you need "dup" and "--no-allow-verndor-change" as "up" causes problems, no matter who does the configuring. Unfortunately I am unsuccessful with the "zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change" command.
Zypper calculates 95 problems on my main PC. Zypper offers exactly 1 solution for each of the 95 problems. It suggest to change packages from Packman to openSUSE, from KDE to KDE:Extra etc. Also Zypper suggest to choose some self-compiled RPMs with "official" RPMs from repositories. # zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change Warning: You are about to do a distribution upgrade with all enabled repositories.

If I refuse only one suggestion with "skip" Zypper comes to an endless loop. If I answered the 95 questions with at least only answer "skip", Zypper starts again. So if I have to say "Yes" to everything, I don't see the difference between "zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change" and "zypper dup". Especially "zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change" does not preserve my repository preferences for me.
