Unfortunately there is a fundamental problem: the repositories do not (or even cannot) specify for which product (version) they are intended for. So when doing an upgrade YaST by default removes all repositories. But you can re-enable (some repositories work with several distro version) or change to URL to point to a new version repository. > "Should I (zypper) try to update the URLs for those repositories, allowing to update the community packages as well?" That's difficult, you cannot reliably detect and change the URL to point to a new repository. The version might not even be present in the URL. The correct solution for this issue is to use the "$releasever" variable in all repositories. That's actually already used even in 15.1, see https://download.opensuse.org/YaST/Repos/_openSUSE_Leap_15.1_Default.xml . (But IIRC that was changed later, in the 15.1 release time the URLs had hardcoded "15.1" version, so maybe it depends when you added the repositories.) The problem with Packman and NVidia is that these repositories do not use "$releasever" in the URL, see https://opensuse-community.org/openSUSE_Leap_151_Community_Additional.xml https://opensuse-community.org/openSUSE_Leap_152_Community_Additional.xml These files are maintained by community (note a different host in the URL). Reassigning to Martin Schlander to fix the URLs... (Actually I have complained about that issue a year ago, see https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1141654#c7)
