Hi,

I’m in the weird spot again, where I want to update my Tumbleweed system and am lost in a dependency hell. It more or less occurs once in a while when updates drop and the prompt asks if I want to install stuff from vendor “obs://build.opensuse.org/home:wolfi323” replacing the obsolete stuff from the official openSUSE vendor.

As soon as I read wolfi323, I get fucking Vietnam flashbacks, because it means I will have to decide for ~100 services if I keep the current obsolote version or install the one from wolfi323. Either way, it’s gonna fuck up a myriad of dependencies.

All that hassle just to do the same shit all over again because at some point, the official opensuse repos catch up with newer versions.

I could probably wait for the official updates, but it’s uncertain, when they are going to drop and I’ll just pile up thousands of updates in the meantime.

How do the Tumbleweed Folks among us deal with this?

    Tbh, I don’t know if I needed it and added it myself, or if it was an oob Repo. I’ll try to use the flag though. Thanks!
