Thread: source repo down? http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/looking-something-other-tha... Thread: What Happened to the OSS and Non-OSS Source Repos for 11.2? The official repository addresses should be frozen for each distro till its end of life. At the very least, changes should be announced in advance. Or, you should add a feature to yast/zypper that gets messages "from above" and tells the user about changes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Fire up YOU or package management, or zypper ref, up, install; or simply wait for packagekit turn. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
