Why should we put backports into regular devel project? I thought that point of 15.3 repository in d:l:p is to show what is buildable on the regular real Leap 15.3.
The real main purpose was Leap users used to add d:l:p to there systems which would cause them to break in strange ways because it would always pull in packages that wouldn't work on there system.
So Leap builds were disabled in d:l:p and backports was created just to have modules built against the actual python in leap so users could get the newer versions of the modules that would work with the distro python which generally breaks less things. In neither the use case you or I described is there a need for d:l:p to include d:l:p:backports so I also don't understand the use case, so what exactly is broken and how does this change fix it. On the other hand not having the Update target in 15.3 can cause issues. I'd use the following for example. <repository name="openSUSE_Backports_SLE-15-SP3"> <path project="openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3:Update" repository="standard"/> <path project="openSUSE:Backports:SLE-15-SP3" repository="standard"/> <arch>x86_64</arch> </repository> -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
