Hi
It seems that bad stuff that happened here is triggered somewhere between chair and display.
Also note that for regulary maintained releases, zypper patch will update package management stack (zypper, libzypp, rpm) befor installing other updates. This does not make sense for dist upgrade where exactly stuff that happened to you would happen - but hey I guess you know better then developers of distribution.
But "zypper dup" is the reccomended method to upgrade from, say, Leap 42.3 to 15.0. It is supposed to work out of the box.
There is, of course, another method using the DVD, which I personally prefer.
If you expect migrations to work perfectly between a released product and the earliest development versions of a brand new codebase, then you are quite frankly stupid.
If you run into problems and do not file bug reports, then you are quite frankly useless
If you don't file bug reports and instead wax lyrical about how other distributions from a bygone age managed things on the -factory mailinglist, then you are both useless and wasting everybodies time.
From technical point of view: 42.3 is the latest released version, 15.0 is the next. What else should the upgrade work from if not from 42.3? Sure, things may be broken at this stage but two things are more crucial than anything else: installation from scratch and upgrade from previous version. So saying "if you expect it to work you are stupid" is not an appropriate response. From social point of view, it's even worse. I can't believe my eyes I'm reading these words from a board chairman who recently kicked few people out of all lists for what he calls "toxic behaviour" (yeah, I know, "not your decision", "board unanimously", etc., whatever). I understand that you feel annoyed by some people and maybe even believe that if you can get rid of them, everything will be nice and everyone happy (those who are left, anyway). That's human. But part of being a good leader is being able to swallow that, suppress one's ego, and accept that some people keep saying things you don't like. If you can't, please do something else. I'm saying this as simply as I can: please apologize. This was way over the line. Please apologize so that I can believe you are not completely lost.
