OpenSUSE uses, I believe, RPM packages. When I used SUSE back in the 90s, update packages were a nightmare, there were always unsolved dependencies and trying to fix them manually was an exercise in frustration.

I would suggest you look at a distribution using Debian packages (.deb), like Debian, Ubuntu, Mint and so on, updates are pain free.
