libzypp 6.2.2 uses an aria2c feature which was broken in aria2 1.2.0, which was discovered via zypp:Head on Friday/Saturday, and fixed before libzypp 6.2.2 was submitted to Factory.
Peter,
you're a genius! I'm only using openSUSE:Factory (with some very few addons, which should never conflict with Factory...)
But as I could not use zypper dup for a while (missing a driver for my wlan, so I needed to stay on an older kernel and was only doing zypper up <small chunks of packages I can control> for a while... and apparently with the last update of zypper / libzypp I missed to also get aria2 in the latest stack.
Grabbed the RPM off of download.o.o/factory, rpm -Uhv'ed it, and zypper is working fine again. Thanks for your help!!!
Cool that this helped. I tried hard to be the first to run into this bug, fix it as soon as possible and you may suspect that I tracked its way to Factory with quite some attention ;) Thanks for confirming the (now) benign situation, and sorry about the hassle.
Dominique
PS: Peter, I always have trouble replying to your mails. Hitting 'reply' gives me always only the line

Hm, so you are saying you get an empty "quote" when composing your reply - where there should be quoted text there's only empty space? No idea. I'm using mutt with no fancy features. A GPG signature is appended, so my mail is always multipart mime-encoded. Peter -- "WARNING: This bug is visible to non-employees. Please be respectful!"
