Make sure you have the "update" repository enabled: many people on TW don't have it.
I looked for an update repo for TW, and was told that since it is a rolling release, updating should be a case of installing the latest.
What is in the update that wouldn't be in the latest rolling release? Say a customer installed TW on Nov01. On Nov10, they want to make sure they have the latest, so they update against 'current' on Nov10.
Is it the case that they should have moved to the latest patches for Nov01 before syncing their dist to the Nov10 version? The idea of there being updates for a rolling release seems a bit odd. So why?
I use the update repo, for example, if I have a new package that I want to install in between a rolling release. If what I want that is new for me happens to also have an emergency release that bypasses the normal release cycle, as Andrei says, it will be installed from the update repo. -- George Box: 42.3 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: TW | Plasma 5.13 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: 15.0 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
