no, unfortunately there is no repository for all fixes. If the fix was not 
provided as an official online update, you can't get it. Simply using the 
version for 11.2 from "factory" can lead to problems.
For the autoyast core it's even more complicate. The autoyast core can not be 
fixed via RPM because when the problem occurs, there is no system with RPM 
database so I have to provide driverupdate files but I only do that for 
critical bugs - thank god is was not necessary since a few releases.
