Can a version upgrade be done entirely within YaST? Specifically: 1. amend all repositories from 15.1 to 15.2 2. use Online Update to do a "force update all"
Better not.
Just use "zypper dup" in text mode, with download first. There is a new command option to edit the repos, I think, but I don't recall if 15.1 has it.
This will be the first time I've ever done a version upgrade -- previously, I've always done a fresh install from a DVD/USB stick. So please give very detailed information. Especially, why not do it the way I asked? I've also never used zypper for anything, preferring to use the YaST updater (or the desktop widget in the GUI), so you should presume I know nothing about this utility. I do, however, have these early questions: 1. Why not just use "--releasever 15.2" on the zypper dup commandline? It seems to me that this should work at least for the main, non-OSS and update repositories. However, I also have the libdvdcss and Packman repositories configured, and these 2 have "openSUSE_Leap_15.1" in the URL -- so maybe this wouldn't work with those 2? 2. The zypper default seems to be "download-in-advance", so why is this option needed at all? 3. Would "download-in-heaps" work? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
