I am trying to update my wife's Leap 15.0 system and get this error when using either zypper or Yast2.
I am using the kernel from the ../Kernel:/stable/standard/ repository on my Leap 15.0 as well as hers but I am not having this hassle.
When using zypper to update I get this error msg (pls see attached zypper_error-31.png) and when using Yast I get the error msg in the attached Yast_error-31.png.
Yesterday when I tried to do same, the 'zypper up' got a lot further in the installation - pls see attached zypper_error.png. Do "dmesg" just after the error. There should be an entry in the last

Or just peruse the log now and search back for it (word "segmentation" or perhaps "coredump").
I have run 'zypper clean -a' and 'zypper refresh -fdb' but this hasn't helped.
Anyone please suggest what is causing this problem and how to how to get rid of the cause of this problem? I would try "rpmdb --rebuilddb".
This is more a calculated guess than a silver bullet, but it looks like the 4.20.5 kernel (brand new) is not playing well with the 20181218 kernel-firmware patch. I do know I got new firmware with 4.20.5 on Arch, so I suspect the same would be needed with openSuSE. From a recent thread in factory mail list, I understand it is better to try the tumbleweed kernel. I can search the explanation if you want.
(Just had a break for dinner...) Thanks, Carlos, I'll do what you suggest above tomorrow and see what the log states re the seg. fault.
