for syntax that I know was working in Leap 15.2. We need to update the version we support in the sumaform versions.tf files

[ktsamis]

The easy workaround is of course to downgrade the version of terraform you use:

 
ktsamis@kostas:~/Git/sumaform> terraform init
Initializing modules...

Initializing the backend...

Initializing provider plugins...
- Checking for available provider plugins...
- Downloading plugin for provider "template" (hashicorp/template) 2.2.0...
- Downloading plugin for provider "null" (hashicorp/null) 3.1.0...

The following providers do not have any version constraints in configuration,
so the latest version was installed.

To prevent automatic upgrades to new major versions that may contain breaking
changes, it is recommended to add version = "..." constraints to the
corresponding provider blocks in configuration, with the constraint strings
suggested below.

* provider.template: version = "~> 2.2"


Terraform has been successfully initialized!

[juliogonzalez]

The installation instructions were wrong: #992

Since with those instructions, the package will be installed with the sumaform vendor, updates from openSUSE will never be installed unless the user allows a vendor change.

For others having this issue, they need to downgrade as you did (changing the vendor).

Can we close this, @ktsamis?

[juliogonzalez]

And also terraform for sumaform is now 1.0.10
