<br>
Good to hear your openSUSE Leap upgrade to 15.4 went well. I have to <br>
have another go after following the instructions I found, that did not work.<br>
<br>
My openSUSE Tumbleweed systems continue to update without any dramas and <br>
hopefully 'touch wood' continue to do so.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Huw<br>
