Comment # 2 on bug 1000459 from Bruno Pesavento

Hi, the "official way" to "zypper dup" is on a VTn console while in
multi-user.target (AKA "runlevel 3") AFAIK, even if doing that via "screen"
usually works.
Maybe this time the conflict between plasma5-desktop-branding-openSUSE 13.3-6.1
(installed in beta1) and plasma5-desktop 5.7.95 (to be upgraded in beta2) might
have played a role (for details see
https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/520065-Discussion-thread-for-42-2-Beta2?p=2793794#post2793794
).
Apart from that my "zypper dup" went smooth but I noticed that the download
server apparently had hiccups on Sept. 22 or 23.
