A few months ago I updated to Leap 15.4. Since then I never had any updates which seems strange to me. There aro no errors

Repository priorities are without effect. All enabled repositories share the same priority.

I do Zypper ref and Zypper Up, but the answer is always Nothing To Do. I’ve tried zypper clean -a.

Anyone who has a clue?

Enable repositories #6 and #8 Those are where your updates will come from… :slight_smile:

Edit: And welcome to the openSUSE forums.

Hi and welcome to the Forum :slight_smile:
Seems you have repositories disabled, hence no updates…

I don’t use non-oss, but have the follwing enabled on my Leap 15.4 system;


zypper -lr -dE

You need to enable repositories 6 and 8 on your system, I would force a refresh,then try updating again.


zypper mr -e 6 8
zypper -vvv ref -f
zypper -vvv up

Thanks both. Now it works.

It was confusing for me as I thought that the updates would come from 1 & 2.

And I don’t understand why OpenSuse doesn’t have a feature to load default repositories into the system. I think that would be quite useful. The repositories can get messed up after a while.

I doubt that is the case. Those two repos where “automagicaly” added when I updated from one Leap version to the next and they will be added also during a fresh installation like all the other standard ones.

After that only repos are added when you do that yourself. But maybe you did some one-click installs and that seems to be broken in that it adds repos it should not. And when you then do not check what happens …
