It paints a picture of a person who will not upgrade because some software they require is not in the main distributions.
wtf? You really have no clue what you're talking about. Try reading the OP ...
Oh I think I do..and I did read your OP
We'd test more broadly if upgrading to a new distro didn't break stuff by forcing downgrades to our prior-distro's-non-home-repo-upgraded-packages.
You'd test if we didn't force downgrades on your totally untested, unchecked, and unsupportable combination of whatever repositories you've smashed together? I'm not sure we'd really get any benefit from your testing In doing so, everything you test would be totally and utterly meaningless and unhelpful for what we're trying to do with openSUSE Leap. The second you add a Devel repo and install stuff from it, you can consider everything you find related to that software in the Devel repo to be your own fault Every bug you file related to that Devel repo, might as well be marked as INVALID This is a little less true when it comes to using Devel repos with Tumbleweed, but then the need to actually use a devel repo with Tumbleweed should be much less, given the difference between a Devel repo and Tumbleweed should always be minimal. If you want to help us testing the latest and greatest openSUSE packages, the ones that will be important for Leap 43.0 and beyond, then download and start using Tumbleweed. without Devel repos, unless you're actually a contributor to the packages in those Devel repos.
If you're not interested in this solution, then stop participating in this discussion.
I'm interested in any solution which prevents users from running unreviewed, untested, and unsupported software.
If you want to do ... whatever the daylights it is you're suggesting ... the start your own thread, and don't hijack this one.
I'm suggesting that automatically turning on Leap 42.1 for Devel Projects will lead to users breaking their own machines, will not help the development of either openSUSE Leap 42.2, 43.0, or Tumbleweed, and is therefore a _stupid_ idea.
