I hear that factory installs force no-cache pragma, which destroys any
cacheability.

Is that (still) so? Or is that outdated information?

When I grep for CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER I see no matches in libzypp, and I
think that's the only way to actually set a "Pragma: no-cache" header,
right? (at least I can't find any CURLOPT_* that would directly set that
header).

I seem to remember that libcurl adds the header by default on itself.
And I think there was actually a bug about it.

The curl commandline tool definitely does this.

Bug 326208 - libcurl forces "pragma: no-cache" which makes libzypp not play
well with squid

?

Yes, that's the one. Thanks for digging it out. So it seems this is not
fixed yet.

I was asking because I got a report from a mirror / site admin who
needed to work around in squid by making it ignore the header. A
university network with lots of openSUSE deployments.
