Aahh, Patrick, oi tink you be in need of a rest, oi does :-) .

zypper up --from <repo> -D vlc

comes back with an error message that "--from" is a no-no.

*However*, dropping "--from" results in being told that zypper won't 
install vlc 'cause the version already installed (1.9.99 which I have) 
is 'later' than its v1.1.13.

I'll stop here as anything else will only mind-boggle whoever may be 
following this thread :-D .
