Currently running Leap 15.0 and until Saturday (May 25) I would see a handful of updates most days. Sunday there were over 1000 updates (did not install) and today there are 2090 (also not installed). I have not installed the updates for two reasons: 1. 2090 is a bit difficult to believe and 2. I plan on replacing my boot drive with a SSD and installing Leap 15.1 However, I am puzzled by the abrupt increase in updates for a system that has been updated several times a week for the last year or so.
Most likely this isn’t the best place for this thread, but I really couldn’t find a better sub-forum.
Do you install a 1-Klick Installation file for factory?
Please post:
zypper lr -d
And do not update.
My guess is that you did a “one click” install, which added a repo – possibly a Tumbleweed repo. And now you are seeing update to the level of that repo.
Please post the output of:
zypper lr -d
so that we can see if that is a bad repo there.
Oh, and use code tags for that output.
Just to clarify, this instillation was done on a clean disk. It was not an upgrade from Tumbleweed, although there is a Tumbleweed repo in the list.

That’s bad, a result of a 1-click application installation most likely. Remove or disable it before doing any updating, and there won’t be but a small fraction of that many updates to do.
That factory repo will mess you up disable or remove it. It will break things. It probably came from a ill chosen package install from openSUSE software site. When install packages outside of your standard repos always be aware that you must select the same version as you have installed. If only available from factory or TW repo disable the repo after installing the package if you absolutely must have the package.
Humm, tumbleweed repo may have been the result of trying to add extensions. I’ll remove it.
Thanks!
