I've upgraded from Leap 15.6 to 16.0.
I've created bugs for specific issues but I also wanted to give you feedback about the overall process which was horrible for me.
Overall, it took me about 10 hours to get a stable desktop back.
I had to run the tool three times. Two times, the migration failed because the checksum check for libjson-glib-1_0-0-1.10.6-160000.3.2.x86_64.rpm failed (file was downloaded from the network). I eventually fixed this by adding the ISO as zypper repo with prio 90:
[openSUSE-Leap-16.0.iso]
enabled=1
autorefresh=0
baseurl=iso:/?iso=Leap-16.0-offline-installer-x86_64.install.iso&url=file:///storage
type=rpm-md
priority=90
keeppackages=0
The migration downloaded all files every time, overwriting/deleting files already in /var/cache/zypp.
Usually, I had no network after booting into rescue mode. Running systemctl start NetworkManager.service failed with "error: Dependency". I have no idea what this error means or how to fix it. I assume SELinux broke something because I could manually set up my network with ip(1). But since that doesn't include DNS information, it didn't help much - without DNS, zypper is pretty useless.
After the migration, the non-oss nvidia driver (nvidia-driver-G06-kmp-default) was installed but didn't work. I had to force zypper to reinstall it. One sign of this was that the nvidia-persistenced failed to start during boot.
I had to boot about 4 times in rescue mode because the system wouldn't come up because of SELinux. At this time, I'm so frustrated with SELinux that I'm considering to build my own kernel with SELinux disabled.
Let me know if you want to know more about any of those issues that I ran into, I've collected a couple of logs and screenshots (with my mobile) and might remember some detail for the next few days.
