I would say, you have a current libzypp (6.2.2), but an outdated aria2
(1.2.0, but without a certain fix).

This combination of packages could occur if updated libzypp from
zypp:Head before the fixed aria2 package was in Factory.

libzypp 6.2.2 uses an aria2c feature which was broken in aria2 1.2.0,
which was discovered via zypp:Head on Friday/Saturday, and fixed before
libzypp 6.2.2 was submitted to Factory.

Peter,

you're a genius! I'm only using openSUSE:Factory (with some very few addons,
which should never conflict with Factory...)

But as I could not use zypper dup for a while (missing a driver for my wlan, so
I needed to stay on an older kernel and was only doing zypper up
<small chunks of packages I can control> for a while...
and apparently with the last update of zypper / libzypp I missed to also get
aria2 in the latest stack.

Grabbed the RPM off of download.o.o/factory, rpm -Uhv'ed it, and zypper is
working fine again.
Thanks for your help!!!

Dominique
