Raspberry Pi, no updates

xyon0 · November 28, 2018, 6:00am

Hello,

I downloaded JeOS (details below) and installed it on my Raspberry Pi 3 some time ago. After doing an initial dist upgrade (had installed using June JeOS) after install, I’ve not gotten any updates from the core repo (see below). Is there another zypper repo I should be using to get updates or a different image I should be using? This device is exposed to the outside world so I want to be sure to be on top of security updates quickly.

JeOS image: openSUSE-Leap15.0-ARM-JeOS-raspberrypi3.aarch64-2018.06.06-Buildlp150.1.1.raw.xz

Repo list (with uri):
Repository priorities are without effect. All enabled repositories share the same priority.

| Alias | Name | Enabled | GPG Check | Refresh | URI

When I visit the Ports repo, I see the latest repo update was June (some files updated in July):
http://download.opensuse.org/ports/aarch64/distribution/leap/15.0/repo/oss/ChangeLog

Am I doing something wrong or missing something here? I’m not looking for cutting edge (ie, Tumbleweed), just want to keep up with security updates.

Hi and welcome to the Forum
Yes, the update repository was not present on release and didn’t get added to your system (a known issue), so you need to manually add;

Thank you very much, that was exactly what I was missing. The pi is up to date now and working great! I’m so impressed at how smooth an update it was (from June!), no quirks, no problems. Love Leap.
