Changelog

Back to changelog

Starting with Jenkins 2.537, RedHat and openSUSE have the same RPM packages from the same unified repository at https://pkg.jenkins.io/rpm/. Users with an already installed prior version are transparently redirected when refreshing their repositories: https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat/ and https://pkg.jenkins.io/opensuse/ both redirect to the new URL.

The old repositories are retained and allow to install older versions (<2.537) by using the following URLs: https://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat-legacy/ for RedHat distributions and https://pkg.jenkins.io/opensuse-legacy/ for openSUSE distributions.

Note for openSUSE users: the System V initialization scripts are removed for openSUSE installations (details in https://www.jenkins.io/blog/2022/03/25/systemd-migration/).

⚠️ There is a known bug introduced for openSUSE users: the autorefresh feature of the zypper repository is disabled and requires a zypper refresh command.
