Perhaps you can point me to some useful documentation on how to get NM up during boot, rather than when I log in as a user -- preferably something that can be fully set up during the upgrade process.
I am configuring NM with nmtui which is a curses type application. It hardly needs documentation, except for the fact of its existence, which is not that well advertised.
I have [now] successfully used it to configure wireless, to operate portably on several networks and also wired with fixed IP and DHCP on the one interface. So that covers most ordinary uses short of routing through a machine.

Did you do as suggested?
Yes, of course. In fact, I'd just done a zypper dup and all repos were/are up to date. Even after a zypper ref I get the same message about "incomplete repos found". I have some disabled repos in the list, so that may be the cause. I'll remove them and try again... Nope - still the same.

Is that worth a bug report (TW btw).

The program 'nmtui' can be found in the following package: * NetworkManager-tui [ path: /usr/bin/nmtui, repository: zypp (repo-oss) ]
Try installing with: sudo zypper install NetworkManager-tui

That's weird - works for you but not for me. Regardless of what I've tried, same error every time. Oh well, looks like it's only broken for me, so no bug report needed.
