4.4 JeOS renamed Minimal VM and Minimal Image

We have received feedback from users confused by the name JeOS, as a matter of fact the acronym JeOS, which meant Just enough Operating System, was not well understood and could be confused with other images provided by SUSE or openSUSE.

We have decided to go with simplicity and rename JeOS by "Minimal VM" for all our Virtual Machine Images and "Minimal Image" for the Raspberry Pi Image. We have also removed a few other characters, in the full images name to make it more simple and clear:

5 Changes affecting all architectures

Information in this section applies to all architectures supported by SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP6 (prerelease).

5.1 Containers

5.1.1 suse/sle15 container uses NDB as the database back-end for RPM

Starting with SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP3, the rpm package in the suse/sle15 container image no longer supports the BDB back-end (based on Berkeley DB) and switches to the NDB back-end. -Tools for scanning, diffing, and building container image using the rpm binary of the host for introspection can fail or return incorrect results if the host’s version of rpm does not recognize the NDB format.

To use such tools, make sure that the host supports reading NDB databases, such as hosts with SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP2 and later.
