Jun 16 18:35:17 ariel openqa-continuous-update[27880]:   obs://build.opensuse.org/devel:openQA -> openSUSE

so an old version of openQA was installed. Fixed by running zypper dup shortly after.

Acceptance criteria¶

• AC1: Failures to refresh one repo lead to aborting the upgrade attempt

Suggestions¶

• Likely the problem happens due to an implicit refresh in https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/blob/master/script/openqa-continuous-update#L33 of other repos to fail which surprisingly did not seem to abort the zypper dup process. Try to replicate this error condition and either (report a bug to) fix the zypper behaviour or work around it.
• Report an upstream issue or comment on an existing one
