I have tried updating my system from 15.4 to 15.5 but getting the "Installation has completed with error."
Noting is updated and I am back with 15.4.
Looks I am missing:
File './x86_64/broadcom-wl-kmp-default-6.30.223.271_k5.14.21_150400.22-lp154.196.4.x86_64.rpm' not found on medium 'https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Sauerland/15.5/'
File './x86_64/qarma-20220116.g6ee1a72-lp154.33.3.x86_64.rpm' not found on medium 'https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ahjolinna/15.5/'
Where can I find the above packages to complete the update?
File './x86_64/broadcom-wl-kmp-default-6.30.223.271_k5.14.21_150400.22-lp154.196.4.x86_64.rpm' not found on medium 'https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/Sauerland/15.5/'
You have updated and the Server has also updated, so the file does not exist anymore.
And the best Solution is to use the broadcom-wl from Packman Repo, all are the same.........
I am getting following errors when I run the above command:
Code:
sudo zypper ref
[sudo] password for root:

As posted, your repo list is largely unusable. The URLs are the most important parts of each. Many of yours are only partials. If you redirect output of zypper -r to a file, then the file will be complete, thus usable for pasting or attaching.
All those "home" repos need to be disabled to give the update program a chance to get the system from 15.4 to 15.5. Any with duplicate URLs need each dupe removed. After a competent upgrade has been completed you can determine whether you need to add any optionals back with the correct version 15.5. You can upgrade online once inapplicable repos are out of service, using sudo zypper clean && sudo zypper ref && sudo zypper dup --releasever=15.5.
Each repo in the list is represented by a file in /etc/zypp/repos.d/. Each can be separately edited from 15.4 to 15.5 if you wish. If you do so with all, then --releasever=15.5 would be optional. Disabling can alternatively be accomplished by changing individual filenames to not end in .repo. YaST too can perform all required repo edits for you.

Many thanks for your reply! I have followed your advice and updated the system :-).
