Could you kindly refrain from personal insults? Thank you. My point was (is); suddenly, one can no longer zypper dup - which means that Tumbleweed on 11.4 users wouldn't even get security updates any more easily that would be released for 11.4 itself (which is still maintained for a while). From a release management perspective, this was poorly handled. And there was no urgent reason for doing so. Tumbleweed could have stayed how it was, frozen, no more updates to it. That the "old" Tumbleweed remained around would not have had an impact on work on a Tumbleweed for 12.1. I have no problem with updating to 12.1 - but I'd have preferred if I could have had more freedom in choosing a time that works for my schedule.
