Changes to openSUSE

Starting with Leap 42.1, Leap's code is aligned with SUSE Enterprise Linux as the base code. This will allow stable releases to be built based on the rock solid reliability of SuSE Linux Enterprise. Releases will be more in line with SUSE Enterprise Linux. 32-bit versions are no longer available, only 64-bit (x86_64) versions are now available. SUSE Enterprise Linux has not supported 32-bit for a long time and being more in line with SUSE Enterprise Linux, openSUSE now shares this trait. Most modern CPU's now support 64-bit (Late Pentium 4's and above support x86_64). The rolling release, openSUSE Tumbleweed still supports 32-bit versions if needed.

• This release supports TLS v1.3 with Apache
• This release supports the new charon method of configuration for Strongswan.

Installation notes/Known Issues

• Not strictly related to openSUSE but as of today (17th July 2020), Crashplan's service has changed from crashplan to code42.
• No other known issues during installation.
