Often yast2 reposrts 'timeout' when updating or installing new packages from internet (this also happens when updating the system during installation). A message box appears that notifies the timeout. When clicking on 'retry' the package is immediately downloaded without problem. But problem sometimes occurs with further packages that are downloaded. During installation around one hour is wasted for downloading the initial repository descriptions of the update repositories. This is because waiting for timeout and clicking on 'retry' button needs to be done several dozen times! Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.PC needs to use proxy with authentication to access internet. 2.Install or update packages from internet. 3. Actual Results: timout occurs. 'retry' button helps to solve issue. Expected Results: no timeouts. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
