There doesn't seem to have been a whole lot of testing it.
You mean besides openQA which tested the following scenarios with zypper dup every single build of Leap: 13.1 GNOME > 42.1 https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/97548 13.2 GNOME > 42.1 https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/97536 13.2 KDE > 42.1 https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/97534 Not to forget all the upgrade tests from disk done, which actually also included upgrading from 12.3?
As that 13.2 was an i586 installation with TDE[1] rather than Gnome, XFCE, Plasma, KDE4 or KDE3, and even yet there still is no TDE repo for Leap, it was an unlikely candidate for success.
The openSUSE Leap distribution consists of 7800 packages contained within the repositories found http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.1/repo/ TDE is not officially supported by openSUSE Leap, as demonstrated by the fact that it is not contained on the media or in any official repositories for openSUSE Leap, or any previous openSUSE release As you were not running 13.2, but 13.2 + your own choice of repositories, I think it's disingenuous of you to answer this persons question with your experience, when your experience is well outside of the scope of their question. They asked if the zypper dup upgrade works from 13.2 to Leap. It does. It might not work if you include non-official repositories, but that's why they're non-official. If you want to see openSUSE support a broader selection of software in the distribution, and therefore support a broader selection of upgrade start and end points, that's fine, but I don't think this support list is going to be the best place to find people to help with that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
