   But you do not update Leap 15.1 (released) using zypper dup, ever. You   
   have to use zypper patch or zypper up, depending on your intentions.   
      
   Only Leap 15.1 Beta has to be updated using zypper dup and only zypper dup.

   I think that you have to unlock that package. I doubt that the update   
   would recommend that. A human person, perhaps, for definite reasons.
