Hi, The subject almost says it all. I post this message again since the subject may have been too obscure or unappealing since nobody answered. Sorry for the inconvenience if your read it already. Last Saturday I installed Opensuse 11.2 x86_64 on a computer running 10.3 for too long a time ;-) I formated / ext4 and mounted the existing /home ext3. Everything was smooth. No hassle except when I wanted to add the packman repo. Yast show errors while parsing the metadata (stuck trying to download the Primary.xml.gz file). I thought it may be a connection problem, or a sync of the mirror, but - Sunday and today the problem remains - Every other mirrors I have tried gave the same error - I had the same error on other repositories (opensuse-source repo, game repo...). I do not have this probleme with the update, the OSS and the non-OSS repos though. I never encountered such error before, not even on the 2 other 11.2 installation I have done (both i586 btw). Here is the output of a zypper refresh command: ararat:/home/matthias # zypper refresh Le dépôt 'NVIDIA Repository' est à jour. Le dépôt 'openSUSE BuildService - KDE:KDE4:Community' est à jour.

The same if I use YaST. Do somebody know what I am suppose to do ?
