I could have been clearer I guess. My problem was worry about the repos to activate to keep 15.3 properly updated *after* a fresh install....
If you choose "upgrade" from from a USB installation image, you will be presented with a list of all your current repos, and will be asked if you wish to keep any of them. Any that you have installed yourself can be checked to be kept and you will be able at that time to edit the URLs to point to the 15.3 repos. I suggest you change all version numbers (e.g. 15.2) to $releasever, which Yast, zypper, etc will always translate to the proper number. If you do not believe me, go into YaST/Repositories right now and edit a repo to make that change. Then you will see that YaST properly interprets this as follows: URL: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/repo/oss/ Raw URL: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/$releasever/repo/oss/ (You may need to restart the repositories module to see this.) Then the proper repos for 15.3 will be used during the upgrade process, and you will not be faced with any after-install mess of re-installing those repos and updating all that software to reflect this. As I mentioned in another reply to you, I kept the Packman and libdvdcss repos when I did my upgrade, and all worked as intended.
