It has already been mentioned in my last email: 9.2 -> 9.3 (that system is available to me and that is the system where I made a test). Well, I think there has never been such a functionality in YaST "system update" to protect users from trying a system upgrade to a completely new SUSE version, and that is the reason why we have seen not only one problem report related to this issue on suse-linux (de) over the years (in fact, there were dozens), and that is also a reason why there is an SDB article about this issue - all of that would not have happened if you were fully right. Something is a bit mysterious here...
