Aeon: OpenSUSE for Lazy Developers

Re:Aeon: OpenSUSE for Lazy Developers by abc123abc123 on Friday June 28, 2024 @07:21AM (#40819527)

I use opensuse leap 15.3 and it just works. No fiddling around and install takes 15 minutes.

Then I have a home cooked backup script that runs daily to a remote server, so in a worst case situation, I reinstall, 15 minutes, and then copy my dot files and other stuff which might take another 5-15 minutes.

So for single person use, or small environments of 20-30 servers or so, the traditional old model works well.

FYI, in case you missed that, Leap has been EOL since late 2022.

Leap 15.6 was released on the 12th of this month.

It might be the last OpenSUSE using the traditional release model, but it's not EOL.

I think they meant to say specifically Leap 15.3

Definitely possible, but there was considerable talk about the end of Leap. Thought it was still worth mentioning.
