[opensuse-factory] [Announcement] Repository Issues When Upgrading Any 10.3 to 10.3 RC2 (and newer)
Hi, During the upgrade (when using CD/DVD media), the current system repositories are read from the system. These repositories are offered to be either enabled or disabled during the installation/upgrade. If you enable a repository, it is added during the installation in an enabled state and you can use it during the upgrade, otherwise it is added in a disabled state. This all is correct and helps you to upgrade all packages at once. The problematic part is, that if you have a newer libzypp package (that uses /etc/zypp/repos.d/ to store libzypp configuration), you'll have these sources twice after the upgrade. * The old sources will remain as they were before upgrade. * Installation/Upgrade will add them enabled/disabled as selected during the upgrade process. Solution: Do not remove these sources before installation/upgrade because upgrade wouldn't have anything to offer you during the upgrade process. You might disable these sources and you will find them disabled after the upgrade as well. Additionally newly added sources will be enabled or disabled as you will choose during the upgrade. Upgrade from 10.2 to 10.3 is OK Upgrade from 10.3 to 10.3 BetaX adds only those sources that were enabled. Upgrade from 10.3 to 10.3 RC2/... adds both enabled and disabled sources. See bug #326325 for more information.
