Real life can't wait for an official patch to be released. So anyone who does actual ordinary useful stuff on Leap must of necessity be "un-pure".
True, and it harkens back to my assertion that bug reports are largely wasted efforts as far as I can tell, because subsequent release will go out the door without them being fixed. You might expect this will something like Gnucash, as not everyone uses it and is not a core opensuse product anyway. But when you suddenly can't boot because the system won't provide enough time for password entry, and you file a bug report and the only official response is that Fink starts a turf war about who's job it is to fix it (963526), it becomes a bit disheartening. If I upgrade, the work around that I did for that issue will almost certainly be lost, or maybe the issue will go away, because Leap is back level, only to reappear when leap catches up. Chrome and Chromium won't launch on 13.2. No other distro has this problem. Bug report and wait for 13.2 to reach EOL? Or find our own solution? Why should any user fret for 2 seconds about "tainting" a opensuse installation, and running some that is (horrors!!!) unsupported when what is supported breaks without warning, and stays broken for months?
