Hi,
tl;dr 42.2 RC1 is on the mirrors, get it from http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.2/iso/
With the first release candidate of 42.2 we are now feature complete. Time to apply the finishing touch. As usual please report bugs via bugzilla¹. Make sure to check the most annoying bugs list² and release notes³.
The next and last milestone before the relase is RC2. The submission deadline for RC2 is next week, October 27⁴.
Are the Update repos for 42.2 active? I am trying to submit a version bump from 5.1.4 to 5.1.6 for VirtualBox the way I usually do; however, https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:lwfinger:branches:openSU SE:Leap:42.2:Update/virtualbox shows that the build is blocked by a large number of packages. Is this just due to having a lot of prerequisites, or have I done something wrong?
The :Update repo at this point is a place holder - the distribution itself can still take fixes without issues (that shall not mean every version update can just be sent: version changes need to be motivated and you should not be surprised if the release managers want to know more about the risks involved). As :Update is built against the base distro and the base distro still gets updates and rebuilds, it is clear that also branches building agains :Update end up in blocked state. There is nothing really new here. Chhers, Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
