Hi Ulf, hi »all«,

I'm a user of TW, but not an IT-professional. So I'd really like to avoid the 
trouble of a non booting or hanging system after the 20200220 update.

After reading this thread, I tested my sytem:

=== === === 
linux-izun:/home/AW # rpmconfigcheck 
Searching for unresolved configuration files
Please check the following files (see /var/adm/rpmconfigcheck):
    /etc/nsswitch.conf.rpmnew
    /etc/postfix/main.cf.rpmnew
    /etc/postfix/master.cf.rpmnew
    /etc/profile.d/zzz-texlive.csh.rpmsave
    /etc/profile.d/zzz-texlive.sh.rpmsave
    /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/50-system.conf.rpmsave
    /etc/sysctl.conf.rpmnew
    /etc/systemd/system.conf.rpmnew
    /etc/zypp/zypp.conf.rpmnew

=== === === 


So it seems my sytem is affected, right?

What is the best way to avoid havoc while upgrading using zypper dup? I'd like 
to do something _in_advance_ to the upgrade to prevent the trouble. 

By the way: I never touched nsswitch.conf.

Regards,

Alexander
