Last weekend I upgraded my daughter's laptop from OS12.3 to OS13.2. Upgrading with jumps are not supported and most probably won't work. I hope you did "zypper dup" etc. from 12.3 .. 13.1 .. 13.2? AFAIK, it is not via dup, but it is via dvd method. Since decades.
"Since decades" ago it has been to dup from a version to the next version to the next version to the next version until you reach the (latest) version you are upgrading to. But if you want to *jump* 'several' versions and upgrade to the latest then you use the DVD and *make* *a* *fresh* *install*. Koenraad jumped 12.3 to 13.2 using dup which is a *NO-NO*. The failures associated with doing so have been spelt out in past documentation but it now appears that this is no longer so. We progress backwards.
