Hi - Has anyone else had this problem? I’m running OpenSuse Leap 15.1 and all has been stable for a long time. Immediately after today’s updates installed, the network stopped working. I could not get Wireless to work which is all I ever use on this laptop. I rebooted and no difference. After investigating many things, I discovered that if I complete delete the network configuration using Yast and add it again, the network will work after that. However, as soon as I reboot, it fails again. I resolved this for now, by using Network Manager rather than Wicked. A little less convenient for me so I’d like to go back. But in the mean time, it works for me. Any ideas on what to check? When I say it stopped working after updates, I literally mean I was using my browser while the updating was going on and as soon as I got the notification that the updates finished, the network stopped working. I noticed that one of the updates was wpa_suppicant which makes me wonder whether this might somehow be the culprit. Thanks.
Yes, known issue.

Correct assumption…

Thank you so much for the quick reply. I installed the older 4.4 version and protected it and life is good once again! Hopefully, a corrected version will appear in the main updates shortly and I won’t have to listen to the software updater complain constantly that it can’t update the file! Small price to pay to have it working properly again. Thanks again.
