Is all that is required to reload the daemon as in restarting it. zypper ps isn't the brightest bulb in the room. Many systemd implementation automatically hook "systemctl daemon-reload" on systemd upgrade (I haven't looked at the openSUSE .spec file for it, but I would be surprised if it didn't)
After I run the daemon-reload, if zypper ps is still unhappy, I ignore it. It's not windows, no need to reboot except for kernel updates. (or unexplained Plasma or Gnome issues....)
I usually find that daemon-reload doesn't affect one or all of the user instances of systemd. I shall try your advice. If something doesn't work later on, I can always reboot then. Thank you.
Frankly, it is far easier to reboot. Yes, Linux is not Windows but still, restarting updated "things" is not that easy, some must be done in an exact sequence, and some do not restart perfectly. Strange things do sometimes happen, so the faster route, no thinking needed, no hassle, is just rebooting. And if you can not reboot, simply do not update. Delay the update till you can reboot if needed. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.3)
