I didn't think it as simple as it looks. AFAIK, YaST*, with AFAIK 0
repository config files in /etc, predates zypp(er?) by a bunch of years, and
I have no idea how the interplay between them works. As a result, I've always
used YaST to configure the primary (non-Smart) repositories, even though I
rarely ever use any form of YaST for updating anything. With that as context,
it's not obvious just from looking in /etc what regarding repos in /etc is
safe to change or not, particularly since zypper is the tool I use, not
YaST*, and not zypp, for doing updates.
