Give it a try, instead of telling us you don't recall. Here's a recent
pastebin from a reddit user:
==========
The following product is going to be upgraded:
openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230610-0 -> 20230612-0
Product 'openSUSE Tumbleweed' requires to be updated by calling 'zypper dup'!
 
The following 2 packages are going to be REMOVED:
libfreebl3-hmac libsoftokn3-hmac
 
207 packages to upgrade, 2 to remove.
Overall download size: 286.8 MiB. Already cached: 0 B. After the operation,
additional 3.5 MiB will be used.
 
Consider to cancel: Product 'openSUSE Tumbleweed' requires to be updated by
calling 'zypper dup'!
============
I have no idea why this discussion is even going on. Documentation is clear,
release manager(s) has/have been clear. Why not trust that and create non-
documented systems?
On our support platforms we regularly see people that ignore all this and do
break their systems. But, again, why be opiniated about this ?
