<p>Grand New Day Vincent,</p>

<p>I wonderful start to the day, I did create a bug report, I did give some input to Arvin and the good man told me what was missing, a zypper in libyui-qt-pkg and the grand Yast is running again like a young foal. Big cleanup day today before "Snapshot6" I
think now we have a happy yast.<br>

<div class="">We didn’t put this information in the public beta page to not confuse people, because some might wonder </div>
<div class="">where are the “snapshot ISOs" and we only provide them to specific Technology Partners but not on </div>
<div class=""><a href="https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http://download.suse.com&c=E%2C10%2C94pNcAeF%2BgSDasd84wXWV1erB7cA29drDyqjvSjDt70Y58s31Ohe11QNKterqBef6Hfr/z1ku8SCm2Up&typo=1&know=0" class="">download.suse.com</a>.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Since the idea is to simplify beta testing to the masses (fewer ISOs) and usually they don’t request beta</div>
<div class="">registration codes (sic) thus don’t retrieve and apply updates, they will not see the snapshot name anywhere.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">For active beta testers like you, we don’t want to prevent you from testing more than before, thus</div>
<div class="">you can get weekly updates to test ; ). </div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Also providing weekly ISOs to <a href="https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http://download.suse.com&c=E%2C10%2CDmxU%2BIBZ08VhT6NY2l5cHoCpd7/T%2BvFPFVOAItYMBGL%2BhbqkXI3ZYZL1ZZJL0CQ6N9y/K0gc%2Bo%2B1elmQ&typo=1&know=0" class="">
download.suse.com</a> to the public would be a “nightmare” for us at the moment. </div>
<div class=""><a href="https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http://download.suse.com&c=E%2C10%2C3CG0ULsohrBS0PSzxEUkWJVfgbCyo8RNLFvM1hbupwEi3gvgagvk5uMdOru8SG7VPAa3iiKlV0/LUAga&typo=1&know=0" class="">download.suse.com</a> is not ready for handling around
150GB of ISOs every week, but our SCC Channels are </div>
<div class="">perfectly adapted to provide tons of weekly updates if needed.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">I hope this help clarifying the /etc/issues and beta version in /etc/products.d/*, and why we are doing this.</div>
</div>
<div class="">We are always open for comments and feedbacks to improve in the future.</div>

Subject: [sle-beta] SLE 15 SP2 Updates in Beta Online Channels<br class="">
<br class="">
Hi, <br class="">
<br class="">
One of the biggest changes to our SLE Public Beta Program with SLE 15 SP2 was to<br class="">
reduce the number of Public Pre-release images to 3: One Beta, One Release Candidate<br class="">
and One Gold Master Candidate, along with providing more updates through our Beta<br class="">
Online Channels! (cf https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https://www.suse.com/betaprogram/sle-beta/%23themes&c=E%2C10%2Ccll%2Bd6Oy/QCaaywxHk5H83FbO8fXLE1jXyLDdUY/IBKQbIboWHOQ/haPxzPxB5zCEjdJ9ink2aIQee9M&typo=1&know=0)<br class="">
<br class="">
That being said, as of today, there is already updates in our Online Channels that you<br class="">
should consider to install in your system. <br class="">
<br class="">

list-updates and “zypper up” for update?<br class="">
