Following along in my line of “Readers Digest” versions of the official Opensuse upgrades procedures<\/a>, (here are a couple of my past ones: 11.1<\/a>, 11.2<\/a>, 11.4<\/a>, 12.1<\/a>) here’s the latest for upgrading in-place from 12.1<\/strong> to 12.2<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

zypper modifyrepo --all --disable\r\nzypper addrepo --name \"openSUSE-12.2 OSS\" http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/distribution\/12.2\/repo\/oss\/ repo-12.2-oss\r\nzypper addrepo --name \"openSUSE-12.2 Non-OSS\" http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/distribution\/12.2\/repo\/non-oss\/ repo-12.2-non-oss\r\nzypper addrepo --refresh --name \"openSUSE-12.2 Updates\" http:\/\/download.opensuse.org\/update\/12.2\/ repo-12.2-update\r\nzypper ref\r\nzypper dup --download \"in-advance\"<\/pre>\n
I like to use the “in-advance<\/code>” setting so I can be sure all the packages are downloaded before the upgrade begins.\u00a0 You just never know when there might be a power outage…<\/p>\n
Of course, if you were using alternative repos, you might want to add those back too.\u00a0 For instance, if you had the google-chrome repo, you’d enter this command to re-enable it:<\/p>\n
zypper mr -e google-chrome<\/code><\/p>\n
…you can find the rest of your disabled repos (from the first step above) with this command:<\/p>\n
zypper sl<\/code><\/p>\n
Afterward, you might want to remove your disabled 12.1-based repos, since you no longer need them. So based on the list from the command above, you can remove them in one command.\u00a0 Here’s the command I used to remove all my 12.1 repos on a machine that was upgraded in-place like this in the past:<\/p>\n
zypper rr repo-12.1-non-oss repo-12.1-oss repo-12.1-update<\/pre>\n
…and here’s the command I used on a machine that had OpenSUSE 12.1 installed fresh:<\/p>\n
zypper rr Updates-for-openSUSE-12.1-12.1-1.4 openSUSE-12.1-12.1-1.4 repo-debug repo-debug-update repo-non-oss repo-source<\/pre>\n
…of course your repos may be different so make sure to check the list and remove only the old one that you don’t want.<\/p>\n
And that’s it; enjoy your upgraded machine!<\/p>\n
