Gnome-Software OS updates

How is the new Gnome-software OS updates implemented into the base system? Gnome-Software tells me that there are important OS updates where Yast shows nothing?

This may be caused by your repo configuration, please post output, between CODE tags, the # in the editor bar, of


zypper lr -d

BTW, when referring to Yast, is that Yast’s software manager, or the online updater

Im refering to the online updater.

That one only looks for patches/fixes in the update repo(s). These are rarely used on Tumbleweed, i.e. only in case of security issues that need fixing immediately. This is part of TW’s nature as a rolling release. The fact is that TW has actual releases, sometimes even a couple a day. As soon as a desired group of packages for TW build correctly a TW iso is created and pushed to openQA. Once it passes the testing, the packages are released to the TW repos, not to the update repo.
If you want to see it all happening, run


sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper up

When in doubt, post here.
