It seemed to be OK, when I first installed 15.1, but something changed afterwards, but I have no idea what. The only thing I've installed that didn't come from the 15.1 distro was Amarok, which was installed with one click install.
Ah, one click! To me, one click is suspicious.
why so???
Because it frequently results in a TW repo being added to a Leap installation, followed up by a partial unintended upgrade to TW, followed by a mailing list or forum thread plea for help. e.g.
it tells you it is adding a repo and gives you the option to decline the addition
it is iiuc an openSUSE facilitation to easily install an application from a search at software.opensuse.org/search using firefox.
It's painfully easy to add a wrong repo that stays enabled through a subsequent updates round that in turn causes partial upgrades, and an inconsistent (broken) OS installation.
only if one fails to follow the instructions which are quite explicit. if one still borks his system, he probably would have anyway.
openSUSE needs someone with the authority, talent and interest to fix 1-click so that this trouble is much less frequent, or disappears altogether.
what *exactly* needs fixing and which bug reports apply.
