I don´t use other distros.
Years ago, as I had a SUSE VM for some things I was able to upgrade, but it
had issues I do not know you really want to hear.
Once online repo format changed and the old tools couldn´t access it. Thus I
downloaded rpm and zypper RPM packages *including* their dependencies
manually and installed them by rpm -i.
And that was just the tip of the iceberg and by way not the only issue.
I think it got way better, but I never tried it.
AFAIK cross major version distro upgraded are still not officially supported
by SUSE. In the enterprise area I work in party with SLES as distro its
still usual to *reinstall* from SLES 10 => 11 and so on.
Anyway, what use is comparing? I know that upgrades on Debian work *nicely*.
I *use* Debian. So what relevance on earth has it to me to know whether
upgrades work nicely on xyz?
So if you want to put your time to make a cross-distro upgradeability study
feel free.
I won´t. I have better things to do with my time.
Thanks,
