YaST is great, but on tumbleweed I prefer the "zypper dup --download-only -- auto-agree-with-licenses" incantation first, before finally running "zypper dup".
On TW *you have* to use zypper dup. But you can use "download in advance then install" in a single command.
That's true, but I prefer to supervise the installation process. Downloading can happen when I'm in bed, but installation when I'm at the kb.
Then I would try the actual dup without a refresh. The repos might have got updates between the download and the second actual dup, so it might download things again ;-) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
