I did a zypper dup and I have an astonishing 4000 packages to be upgraded …
There is an error

I did try “ignore” and immediately showed up another error:

Please see the above error message for a hint.
I think that you must expect to have problems with mixed repositories and Tumbleweed. You shoul probably use “zypper up” or perhaps “zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change” if you need to mix repositories.
The main problem here though is that the repo metadata cache is outdated.
The packages in that repo have been updated meanwhile, the mentioned packages (that zypper tries to download) do not exist any more.
So run “zypper ref -f” to make sure the repos are refreshed.
And check that you have auto-refresh enabled for that particular repo.
zypper lr -d
Although, as has been suggested already, it may be a good idea to just remove that repo, if you have no particular reason to use it.
I tried to find which package uses boombatower repo and I am lost …
Nonetheless, I tried zypper dup and after 4157 packages upgraded, my system is awesome
Then I did the no-vendor-change
sudo zypper dup --no-allow-vendor-change
[sudo] password for root:

There are some running programs that might use files deleted by recent upgrade. You may wish to check and restart some of them. Run 'zypper
ps -s' to list these programs.
I did have the nntp issue but I follow the recomendation to remove nntpd and problem solve!
You added that repo to your system (probably without Auto-Refresh), and now zypper dup tries to install packages from there.
The reason is that zypper dup doesn’t normally care from which repo a package comes from, it only takes the highest version.
–no-allow-vendor change “fixed” that by preventing zypper dup to change packages to that repo.
You should still remove the repo though if you have no particular reason to use it.
And if you do want to use it, you should better turn on Auto-Refresh for it.

You mean ntp I suppose. nntp is something completely different, and you likely do not have an nntpd installed…
