Dear Tumbleweed users, You probably already realized that there has not been any new, published Tumbleweed snapshot for a couple days (last one published is 20170913 for now). The reason for the delay are the changes in the glibc package, where libnss_nis and libnss_compat have been split out into external packages. Those packages in turn are now linked against an IPv6- supporting RPC implementation (TI-RPC instead of Sun-RPC). It works fine in all scenarios where the upgrade happens using 'zypper', but upgrading using YaST (boot from media, select upgrade) from 'any release' to Tumbleweed gets it wrong (it does not follow the exact same settings as zypper dup does). The issues such an upgrade would introduce are many and widespread, so we could not even 'just document' on how to get out of it again (just installing packages in plus won't work). The people with 'the right powers' are set on the bug [0] and are discussing and evaluating the right approach forward - and once a fix is ready, we will try to integrate this asap into 'the Factory', have it tested, tested, tested and hope to give you a new snapshot soon again. Submissions are all normally staged/reviewed/accepted and we still test daily snapshots. Hence, as soon as there will be a snapshot released, it will be a collection of things that happened in the days since September 14th. Thanks for your patiance, Dominique [0] https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1059065
