Not always. Sometimes, there is an incompatible update to the zypper stack, or the rpm libraries or database, that makes a direct upgrade from version 1 to 3 impossible. Indeed, upgrade from 2 to 3 is also impossible, unless you install the last patches in version 2 that update the zypper/rpm stack to a compatible version that can use both stacks of 2 and 3. This has happened, but I don't remember the exact release. This is the reason why some people recommend to first update zypper, rpm, and related tools, before starting the full system upgrade. Other times, there is nothing of the sort and the jump just works. -- Cheers/Saludos Carlos E. R.
