Hello everyone. I’m thinking of buying a subscription for SLED and I would like to be informed about the following: **1.** Are **sudo zypper patch** , **sudo zypper update** and **sudo zypper dist-upgrade** the correct commands to update my system? **2.** Except **sudo zypper packages --orphaned** , what other commands should I use to delete unnecessary files? **3.** Do I have to enable **Package Hub** to install **Wine**? Thanks in advance.

@Nikos Hi, I normally use `zypper -vvv up` to add some verbosity to the output, for SLE there is the `zypper-migration-plugin` to move to the next service pack rather than a dup. For wine, yes that’s available via Package Hub.
