Upgrade opensuse 15.0 to 15.1

July 17, 2019 by Igor Drobot 4 Comments

openSUSE Leap

openSUSE Leap 15.1 is available at the end of May 2019, and the upgrade process is simple.
Note, that it is always a good idea to:
– look into the upgrade release notes to make sure, you don’t run in any deprecations with your currently running software
– run a backup or a snapshot of the system, which will going to be upgraded.

After you read the release notes and run a backup, synchronize your system to the actual patch level:

zypper ref && zypper up

Now you can safe update your repositories to 15.1 version:

sed -i 's/15.0/15.1/' /etc/zypp/repos.d/*
mv /etc/zypp/repos.d/openSUSE-15.0.0.repo /etc/zypp/repos.d/openSUSE-15.1.0.repo

The move step can fail, if your repository file name is different from the default one. But this is not a problem at all: The refresh process merely replaces needed repos.

Now, you are ready to run the upgrade process:

zypper refresh && zypper dup

Your system will have to be restarted at once, for all the changes to take effect and, thus, run the new system.

    Vielen Dank für die Anleitung.
    Es hat wunderbar funktioniert. Ich musste aber statt des mv Befehls folgenden Befehl verwenden:
    mv /etc/zypp/repos.d/openSUSE-Leap-15.0-1.repo /etc/zypp/repos.d/openSUSE-Leap-15.1.0.repo

    Super kurze Anleitung. Es hat alles bestens geklappt. OpenSuse ist nun von 15.0 auf 15.1 upgegradet, ohne dass die anderen zwei OS (Ubuntu und Windows 10) auf dem gleichen PC beeinträchtigt worden wären. Alles funktioniert wie vor dem Upgrade. Auch in OpenSuse wurde alles übernommen und funktioniert bestens. Es ist nichts zum “Nachbearbeiten”. Eine Anleitung und eine Funktionsweise, wie man sie sich wünscht!
