Big update: openSUSE Leap 15.3 testing images are finally available and detail about Leap 15.3 submissions
Ahoy openSUSE! I'd like to inform you that you can already find openSUSE Leap 15.3 testing images on https://software.opensuse.org/distributions/testing . We're really sorry for the delay that was caused mostly by waiting on SLE 15 SP3 Beta1 NDA liftoff and rebuild of openSUSE Backports. I've already requested process changes, so this does not happen next release. Just a reminder that openSUSE Leap 15.3 is based on the Jump concept that we've developed for the past several months. https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Jump Any update request to existing packages should be simply submitted against openSUSE:Leap:15.3 and OBS will determine where to redirect the request either to SLE or openSUSE Backports. The top-level Leap project servers more like a wrapper for building images and to override SLE branding. On new package submissions: Please note that new packages need to be currently submitted against openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3.opensuse-factory@ We know it's inconvenient and we'll work with the Autobuild team to make it a default destination place for any new package submission for openSUSE Leap 15.3. Note: on SLE submissions: Yes you can finally do them. Please make sure that you reference JIRA (e.g. openSUSE partner id request) or bugzilla number while sending request against package comming from SUSE Linux Enterprise. The feature requests will not be approved by suse-sle- review team https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Suse_sle_review_team More about open SLE/Leap Features and their progress can be found here https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/FeatureReview-meeting We're already looking forward to your Leap 15.3 submissions. **Just a reminder that our checking deadline for Leap 15.3 Beta is scheduled for the 12th of February.** Note about software.opensuse.org: You may notice that Installation images for all arches can be now found in the Installation tabs, and the tab Ports no longer exist. This new structure corresponds with the way how we build images in 15.3. We will have to decide where to track ARMv7 once we have images, either the same tab or "Additional architectures". Happy Hacking! -- Lubos Kocman, Release Manager openSUSE Leap SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg - Germany (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg) Geschäftsführer: Felix Imendörffer

Cool. Thank you for this! I have added this already to my devel-repos, and got a few 'unresolvables'. My guess is they result from the fact that the missing package was submitted to Leap 15.2, but not to SLE so far, correct? <snip>
On new package submissions: Please note that new packages need to be currently submitted against openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3.opensuse-factory@ We know it's inconvenient and we'll work with the Autobuild team to make it a default destination place for any new package submission for openSUSE Leap 15.3.
And I guess this procedure applies in that case? Thanks Axel

Please advise if this gets stuck or you need help. Some of us were rather surprised and we should address and avoid it going forward.
Note: on SLE submissions: Yes you can finally do them.
That's great progress!

"not" or "now"? And should this have read "submission request" (instead of "feature request")? Could also be bug fixes, and above you refer to Bugzilla. Gerald

torrents involve manual import into the tracker, so we only do them for the final release, not for betas. So the torrent link should probably be dropped from that page.

I installed it from the DVD installer, then wanted to check if there are any updates available on the network before installing syslog-ng. "zypper dup" gave me a bit unexpected results: " 847 packages to downgrade, 31 new, 23 to remove. Overall download size: 842.7 MiB. Already cached: 0 B. After the operation, additional 593.1 MiB will be used. " It seems, that the DVD is more recent than the ftp tree... Peter

I submitted a newer version of stunnel to openSUSE:Leap:15.3, but it ended up in SUSE:SLE-15-SP2:Update. I would have expected SUSE:SLE-15-SP3. For SLE-15-SP2 I would rather submit the "old" version with a bugfix. What should i do now? -- Mit freundlichen Gruessen, Andreas Vetter

I would like to start testing Leap 15.3 in order to verify the functionality I need will be available and working or to create bugs in time if this should not be the case.
My starting point would be to zypper dup a test system from current Leap 15.2 to 15.3 using the online repository. The packages available at https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/ do not look "very current", e.g. kernel-default-5.3.18-22.2.x86_64.rpm: 06-Jun-2020 18:57 I checked the netinstall-iso openSUSE-Leap-15.3-NET-x86_64-Build41.2-Media.iso and it contains a newer kernel (5.3.18-40) than available in the repo. The update repository for Leap 15.3 is empty: https://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.3/oss/ I am sorry if I overlooked information already available somewhere explaining this, but could you please clarify when current packages for Leap 15.3 will be available in the repo - will this be after Feb. 17 according to https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap ? Thanks and kind regards, Dieter

Indeed, they are not current. I reported this as bug 1180626 It looks as if there is something wrong with the procedures. When releasing a new build, they have provided the install media but they have not updated the repos. So the repos are way behind. You can get a reasonable install using the DVD installer, because that has up-to-date repos on the DVD. But for anything not on the DVD, you have to make do with an older version. This problem makes it hard to seriously test 15.3.

Hello team we've had a new build published yesterday, can you please check if the ftp-tree is still behind? I'm personally doing clean install rather than upgrade so I didn't really see these issues. Thank you On Sun, 2021-01-24 at 12:21 -0500, Felix Miata wrote:

E.g. the directories x86_64 or repodata were last changed at 02-Dec-2020 14:53 - checked just now. The files in repodata/ even have timestamp 03-Nov-2020 08:11. I think zypper finds the same state of the repo as a webbrowser. Kind regards, Dieter

yes, indeed. Zypper takes repomd.xml and https://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/repodata/repom... says it is from 2020-11-03
