Hello,

@Sylva1n Hi and welcome to the Forum :smile:
Do you have any repositories active?

zypper lr -dE
3

Leap Micro has very very limited repositories, by design, as you’re not supposed to be installing stuff into the system root, except under very limited circumstances, mostly limited to things like device drivers.

4

Indeed:

zypper lr -dE
Warning: No repositories defined.

Which repository is suitable?

Thank you

5

I understand. But I need nevertheless some packages to handle edge container orchestration.

6

@Sylva1n what about just zypper lr -d? you should have some visible output?

7

I will re-install the system to be sure.

I have reinstalled the system. I had obviously removed the default repositories…

I could install pidof with:
sudo transactional-update pkg install sysvinit-tools
