First: Never ever try a "online distro upgrade" aka "zypper dup" for such a two version step. At best it will seem to work and fail later.
That's been the standard recommendation since forever, but I doubt there's much reason to pay attention to it for this particular case. The way I understand it, Leap is built on a foundation of SLE12+ mixed with packages from Factory aka Tumbleweed, which means package versions in Leap can be older than versions in 13.2.
13.2 currently runs on systemd-0210-25.16.1, Leap on systemd-210-84.1, 13.1 (via updates) on systemd-208, 13.1 (via repositories/Base:/System:/Legacy, which most of my 13.1 installations are already running, poised to go into Evergreen) systemd-210-74.1. At this level, it shouldn't make much difference whether upgrading from 13.1 or 13.2.
13.2's glibc is 2.19, Leap's glibc 2.19, 13.1's 2.18, so likely not significant.
You also have to compare rpm and libzyp, and related.
One suggestion was to upgrade those first, then proceed with the rest.
Those two were just examples. I start upgrades with a script after locking kernels: #!/bin/sh zypper -v in zypper libzypp libsolv-tools rpm openSUSE-release zypper -v in device-mapper dmraid glibc lvm2 multipath-tools mdadm systemd udev There may be others that would be good to do at the outset. I finish by unlocking and installing kernel. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
