Dear all, Can we please stop this back and forth listing corner cases of "zypper up" in Tumbleweed? The original question was:
I am on tumbleweed. I regularly use # zypper update. But today when i tried zypper update, it suggested zypper dup. Even i regularly do zypper up, i still need to zypper dup for every release of snapshot? Regards,
The helpful answer from the start should have been "yes you need to do zypper dup, always" There is only one officially supported Tumbleweed live update method via terminal: "zypper dup". It is documented here: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Upgrade_Tumbleweed Everything else is noise that may lead inexperienced users to make mistakes and break their systems. Also it does not help a user being less confused about Tumbleweed rolling upgrade nature. Best, Maurizio
