files through yast. and is there a way to create a backup for them...?


Add a repository with -k option, like this:

zypper sa -k http://www.opensuse-education.org/download/repo/1.0/11.0/ edu

The rpms would remain in /var/cache/zypp even after installation.

Or you can modify the keeppackages= option to keeppackages=1 in the .repo files in /etc/zypp/repos.d for existing repositories. The files have the existing repository name with a .repo extension.
