Unless it makes more sense to support the latest 42.x and the latest
15.x instead?
But it looks like the former has been discontinued now, so perhaps
just the latest 15.x and then, once that's released, the latest
16.x (guessing the version number :) in addition to that?

Now, knowing the release and life cycles, I'd suggest to keep it as:
libvirt-opensuse-15.1, libvirt-opensuse-15.2, and so on ... exactly as
you did in the patch you submitted.
Agreed.
Incidentally, once we start introducing x.y version numbers it would
make sense to rename Ubuntu guests so that they look like
libvirt-ubuntu-18.04
and so on.

Please just call it
libvirt-opensuse-tumbleweed
instead: no need to use shorthands.
