Dear openSUSE experts, I use tumbleweed uprgrade of damaged system via bootable USB ani resolvable.rb crahes when calling super method ilne 132 of that ruby script due to missing method inside current product Tumbleweed from March 21st 2022 on the damaged system. Is there any file that stores current snapshot name to recover such situation. All *.repo files from the damaged system are moved to /home directory from their original positions. I look forward hearing from you Yours faithfully Peter Fodrek,j.r.

Tumbleweed Repos very slow!
by Marco Calistri 13 Apr '22

13 Apr '22

Hello, I'm located in Brazil and since some time I notice the TW repos very slow, both during zypper refresh as well as during updates download. Is it a local issue or someone else is facing the same? Thanks and regards, -- Marco Calistri Build: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20220403 Kernel:5.17.1-1-default Desktop: XFCE (4.16.0)

how to prevent /etc/profile.d/ files from returning
by David T-G 13 Apr '22

13 Apr '22

Hi, all -- I'm running Leap 15.2 (and this has been happening for a while), and after a round of updates I have to go back to /etc/profile.d and wipe out files that I don't want (alias.bash + ls.bash in particular). Different from adding my own run commands to profile.local.sh thereunder, I want to NOT get the stock stuff. Is there any way to keep them from being dropped again so that I don't have to deal with this over and over? *sigh* TIA & HAND :-D -- David T-G See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/email/ See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/tofu.txt

Re: Zypper rebuilding initrd for non-installed kernels after updates (Tumbleweed)

When you remove any distribution/update supplied kernel, do you also remove the out-of-line kernel's module of your own? Take a look at /lib/modules and get rid of all directories for which you don't have a kernel anymore. HTH, cheers. l8er manfred

Thank you, that was it, I had a Tumbleweed in there somehow 5 | multimedia_proaudio | Geekos DAW (openSUSE_Tumbleweed) | Yes | (r ) Yes | No | https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/multimedia:/proaudio/openSUSE_Tu… ..probably one of them susesoftware one-clicks that ask if you want the repo added. Dumped it, problem gone. Corollary, what are Leap users SUPPOSED to update with, Yast or zypper? I use Yast on Leap & zypper on TW.

all of approximately one dozen conflicts revolve around a single "nothing provides 'lib.so.6(GLIBC_2.34)(64bit)' needed by..." just so it gets noticed
