Hello,

I think it would spare many users a lot of annoyance if updates went a
little more quickly and silently. I can just about understand that any
time I want to install a package, YaST refreshed all
installation-sources (though this is also debateable - wouldn't one
update a day suffice?); but if the opensuse-updater (or zen-udpater) has
recently reported an updateable package, why does YaST have to check the
installation-source again? It certainly doesn't need to check _all_
installation sources IMHO. This is a real waste of time.

What if other vendors add patch-priority packages into their
repository, eg for security updates? We shouldn't discriminate against
them.
