For general information about reporting bugs, see Submit a Bug.
When it is available, it is recommended to check release notes prior to reporting a new bug.
Bug Day Live event
The live event to kickoff the testing of Leap 15.6 Beta happens on Thursday 7th of March 2024 20:00 UTC as part of our regular Thursday weekly meeting.
Recording of the live event can be found here.
Getting Leap 15.6 Beta
You can download Leap 15.6 Beta install images from get.opensuse.org/testing.
You can write image to the usb disk and install them on your physical host or in a virtual machine.
Reporting bugs
New users are advised to follow our Bug reporting guide.
Leap 15.6 is built on top of Binary packages from SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE). Therefore bugs against inherited packages from SLE need to be reported against SLES, not Leap. Release Manager lkocman Talk - Contributions will help with moving the bugs to PUBLIC SUSE Linux Enterprise products.
To directly report a bug against openSUSE Leap 15.6 - use https://bugzilla.opensuse.org product "openSUSE Distribution". Here's a shortcut. If you can't find a matching component in the list, then simply choose "Other".
Please add newly found issues to the page. Feel free to create a new table as you like.
Raising a feature requests
This should ideally be done ahead of the Beta, as reaching Beta means feature completeness.
If you'd still like to raise a feature request rather than a bug report then please report them here.
Existing bugs
You can also view the list of all bugs against community components and list of all PUBLIC bugs against packages inherited from SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP6.
Please add more bugs to the list as you report them.
Installer, Upgrade, and YaST
The first thing that the team will ask for is YaST logs, please make sure to attach them as described in this Reporting YaST bugs guide.
