[opensuse-factory] LEAP: gpg2 vs. tumbleweed
I went from tumbleweed and have tried LEAP. So far, it's been great except for the following things: - the pulseaudio/kde thing (being fixed atm?) - gpg2 was downgraded from 2.1.x to 2.0.x and I lost the ability to do anything as the keys had already been migrated. - kplasma5-openSUSE and friends were at 42.x and then most recently downgraded to 13.2 Therefore, I suggest and request that gpg2 2.1.x be considered for addition to LEAP as I suspect and hope that the KDE issues will be resolved soon. -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Side-grading from Tumbleweed (our ongoing Rolling Release) to Leap (our Regular Release) is not intended to be supported. Not now, and certainly not weeks from now - Tumbleweed is always moving, so even if we followed your suggestions and fixed it 'now', it would be broken again sooner or later. In the case of GNOME Leap is and will remain at 3.16, where as Tumbleweed is at 3.18, so I'd expect similar problems there So, No, I most certainly think we shouldn't do anything with gpg or any of the other packages you mention in order to support an unsupportable migration path -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Well, you will always incur such a downgrade scenario if you take Tumbleweed as the consideration base. The important part is that openSUSE 13.2 gpg2-2.0.26 -> Leap 42.1 gpg2-2.0.24 is also a downgrade, though hopefully one that remains compatible to itself. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
