No Updates for a Week After Offline Installation of openSUSE Tumbleweed

English Install/Boot/Login

Hi everyone,

I did a fresh offline install of openSUSE Tumbleweed (version 20241226), and since then, I haven’t received a single update, even though it’s been over a week. I’ve been running zypper dup and refreshing the repositories, but it just says “Nothing to do” and doesn’t find any updates. I would like to also add that i have not enabled online updates from Yast.

System Info:

OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20241226
KDE Plasma Version:** 6.2.4
Kernel Version:** 6.12.6-1-default
CPU: Intel Core i9-14900KF (32 cores)
RAM: 31.2 GB
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z690 GAMING X

What I’ve Tried:

  1. Checked Repositories:
    -Repositories are set up and refreshed correctly, and they seem to be pointing to the right Tumbleweed mirrors.
  2. zypper dup Says No Updates:
  • When I run zypper dup, it tells me “Nothing to do,” and I don’t see any new updates.
  1. Network Seems Fine:
  • I can ping external servers like download.opensuse.org, so the network connection is working fine.

You are on the latest snapshot. Everything fine then. Keep in mind that openSUSE is run by volunteers which also want to have some free time over the holidays and don’t want to waste time on OBS instead with their familys.

Hello and welcome to the openSUSE forums.
People here like to see computer facts. Thus copy/paste from your terminal emulator as Preformatted text (button </>) in a post. Or Posting code or preformatted text - Using Discourse - Discourse Meta

When you want others to check that for you, you should post that list

OK, I am not using Tumbleweed, but I did the following: I looked in the News and Announcement section of this English language part of the forums. The last announcement of a Tumbleweed snapshot I see is: New Tumbleweed snapshot 20241226 released! - #3 .

So it seems you are at the newest version.

I also guess that this time of the year many people, including those that prepare Tumbleweed snapshots, are celebrating some off time.

P.S.
Your repo list is shown perfect and is correct.
But with your zypper dup you already forgot the Preformatted text feature :rofl:
