[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed status Feb 3, 2011
Here's a short note as to the status of some recent activity in the openSUSE:Tumbleweed repo: - kernel packages finally got updated to the latest .37 release thanks to some preload package help. If there are any problems with this, please file bugs, as these will also affect the 11.4 release - LibreOffice has been added to the repo. Any update problems please let me know, it might be a bit wierd with the OpenOffice_org packages being removed, but it worked for me in my testing. - I'm adding all of the yast2 packages from openSUSE:11.3 and openSUSE:11.3:Update in anticipation of a libzypp update, so you will see these packages update with no change at the moment, until libzypp is checked in. This was tested to work properly in the openSUSE:Tumbleweed:Testing repo previously and should all be safe. - aaa_base was added to the repo to get the updates that have been done in there to make this package "more sane". Any questions/concerns about these, or other recent Tumbleweed changes, please let me know. I'll try to do these types of updates whenever there's a "big" change in the Tumbleweed repo to give people an idea of what is happening. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

That's wierd. How about: multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel-default) if "kernel-default" is your kernel package (depends on the arch and machine).

That's what I do, and is what is required. I also just do: 'zypper dup' with no "--from" lines, and if the priorities are all the same, it all should "just work".
The intention is to even get updates and fresh install packages which are not part of the Tumbleweed repository.
Yes, you still need to do that, Tumbleweed is NOT a full replacement for the 11.3 repos, nor will it be a replacement for the 11.4 repos. It's an "add-on". thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I'm very eagerly looking forward to an ever-lasting system. I have been running 11.3 Tumbleweed on a test box and I've kept duping it since the Tumbleweed launch. I was also very happy to get LibreOffice there since I've replaced Ooo some time ago with it. For the future, to know more about these, I have a question: Two installations: # 1. Current 11.3, and I keep duping it as 11.3 Tumbleweed. # 2. 11.4 when out, and I keep duping it as 11.4 Tumbleweed. Will I have two different ever-running installations? Or, will they be the same along time, or will 11.3 be discontinued along time and 11.4 will become _the_ ever-running dream of mine? When the current 11.2 comes to EOL I'm wishing to update my server as well as a few machines of friends that I maintain. I'm just not sure about which path to take.

No, your first one would break in lots of interesting ways as it would not work when 11.4 comes out, or it might just not allow any future updates as the packages would be for a different "base" release. hope this helps, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

It didn't much, sorry. I'll try again: Case 1: I have 11.3 in one machine and I'll keep Tumbleweeding it. Where will this lead me to? And for how long? Case 2: I install 11.4 on another machine and then keep Tumbleweeding that. Where will this lead me to? And for how long? What I'd like is like to jump on one train and stay there.

Once 11.4 is out, you keep the tumbleweed repos, remove the 11.3 repos and add the 11.4 repos. Then you keep "zypper dup"'ing. Same procedure, once 11.5 comes out: remove 11.4 repos and add 11.5 => zypper dup.

It will not be the same as the 11.3 based one, but will become similar over time.

No reinstall is ever needed, just point your base repos at 11.4 and do 'zypper dup' and update.

Tumbleweed will _ALWAYS_ be based on the latest release, there will not be a 11.3 Tumbleweed and a 11.4 Tumbleweed. Just "Tumbleweed".
So... just to be clear... if someone is starting with a base of 11.3, plus Tumbleweed... there should, in theory, be no need to reinstall/upgrade to 11.4? As long as this user keeps upgrading with Tumbleweed, they are current What about the other release specific repos that were a part of 11.3?

As was pointed out, you will need to change your "base" repos to point to 11.4. You will not need to change your tumbleweed repo pointer.

You change your base repo to point to 11.4, Tumbleweed will never be supported for any older release. Heck, it's not even reall "supported" for 11.3 today, you had better know what you are doing if you want to use it right now :) thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I'm not quite sure about this but here's an observation, with LXDE: This sympton came with Tumbleweed, I think kernel change did it. The kernel has been updated a few times. After a change it could be that when the screen saver got activated and later the screen got blanked it just stayed that way, no matter what.

This occurs in KDE as well if that matters.
