"I don't know what this error exactly means. Me, I would download the filesystem-84.87-7.1.x86_64 rpm somewhere (manually) (it may be cached locally), and install it (rather update) manually with the rpm command, which will be more verbose.

It worked for me not long ago with another problem I had.

Please check my thread "Critcal crash after Tumbleweed snapshot 20220826 update of "filesystem" package"

No, Fritz Hudnut was not replying to that email. He tried a thread hijack. The actual post was below that section.

LOL . . . the "hijacking" that failed . . . . What if you gave a hijacking and nobody bothered to come???? Actually Carlos, I was trying to start a new thread (hence the different subject line) based upon the ongoing "conversation" about issues with the latest round of TW upgrades . . . and taking your idea to "download the latest iso" as an option to get around the electrical power and time consumed to run these frequent and very large package upgrades . . . as "viable" . . . . But it seems that even you saw that as a "hijacking"??? I'm now seeing that there was a 9/1 snapshot and now a 9/3 snapshot . . . which I'm assuming will increase the total number of packages that I'll be looking at tomorrow when I get back to my TW install????
