I have some systems with leap 15.6. As it has reached EOL i know I need to upgrade to 16.0 but i upgraded one of them and have some issues and I have now no time to upgrade them all and fight with all the issues that can appear. In a month or so I will have time.
Althought theoretically updates stopped on april 30th, i have received updates yesterday and today.
Will we have some extended period when updates will still be working?
@fperal There will still be a few updates dribble through, however development repositories will start being deleted, likewise the main Leap 15.6 ones will move to “discontinued” and still exist on mirrors, so you will just need to update your repository URL’s to point to that. Not sure how it will go for the SUSE provided ones?
Support, none really if have issues, aside from Forum users that may offer advice(?), the normal support roll-out is six months after release, since Leap 16.0 was a major shift it was extended a further four months.
Realistically and to be rather blunt, that is more on the system admins than an openSUSE issue?

Did your recent update include the kernel update for the recent CVE (CVE-2026-31431) issue?
I checked my 15.6 for updates just now, and it’s not there, although the recent comment (05/02) on the ticket shows it’s been fixed for 15.6. Probably hasn’t been pushed out because of the weekend.
Until some minutes ago, my (15.6) kernel was 6.4.0-150600.23.92-default. I ran
zypper refresh
and was offered a single update, to kernel 6.4.0-150600.23.100-default.
I confirmed, and the update completed successfully.
I guess I’m safe now against Copy Fail.
