As I had these lines

      <signature-handling>
        <accept_unsigned_file config:type="boolean">true</accept_unsigned_file>
        <accept_file_without_checksum config:type="boolean">true</accept_file_without_checksum>
        <accept_verification_failed config:type="boolean">true</accept_verification_failed>
        <accept_unknown_gpg_key config:type="boolean">true</accept_unknown_gpg_key>
        <import_gpg_key config:type="boolean">true</import_gpg_key>
      </signature-handling>

already included in my configuration since SuSE 10.1 (although that never
really worked) I didn't check this explicitly.
But as far as I remember from SuSE 10.1 I get different error messages, if 
the (non-existing) signatiure of an add-on source is the problem.

But having a closer look looking at that after the last posting, I found out 
the following:
As I already wrote, in my my default configuration (default.xml) I still had 
two sections <install> and <configure>. For me it wasn't completely clear, 
where to put the <add-on) section and as <install> and <configure> are no
longer neccessary, I removed both of them.
I don't know, why this didn't work at firtst try but after adding these 
sections again, trying several combinations (only <install>, only <configure>,
...) which all didn't work, again I ended up in a configuration with no 
<install> and <configure> at all (in my main/default config file) and - 
it works!


Now, why do I write all this? Because after adding of <add-on> installation
sources now works, I have another problem. Again connected with <install>
and/or <configure>:

Using rules and classes to put together an autoyast configuration depending
on the hardware on which openSUSE 10.2 is installed, I had a closer look on 
all my configuration parts. I remeoved all <install> and <configure> sections
still remaining in other files.
So I also removed an <install> section surrounding my <partitioning>
configuration.

After doing that, now during autoinstallation I get an error message 
concerning the partitioning. Adding the <install> section again, it works fine!
Therfore I can not really confirm the following comment of Uwe Gansert

OK, for me, <install> ... <partitioning> </partitionig> </install>
works. But do you have any idea, why I need this construction?
I don't.


@Uwe: If you want, I can send you the concerned configuration files.
