We have already obs:multimedial:ibs and :apps and Packman repos for

So if possible, I would be happy to see Slowroll beside Tumbleweed and 
Leap on every opensuse download page!

The way I see it, project repositories should not be used as download sources, too many library mismatches are possible.

Just try it and if it works it will be submitted to Factory, from where it will eventually trickle down to Slowroll.

If anything, I'm having second thoughts about that Fedora patch setting a made up soversion...

Ok, thanks.
I want to install it - to try it. And it shouldn't be difficult at all, but seemingly ends up in a cross dependency between libvpl-tools and libcttmetrics
(And just clarify a possible misunderstanding: my previous addon-test with the LP 15.6 repo, was on LP 15.6 - not on Slowroll)

The following three steps  are continues on Slowroll.

1)
The actual https:// repo is enabled as follows:

zypper lr 4
Alias          : openSUSE_Slowroll_2
Name           : openSUSE_Slowroll
URI            : https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/alois:/branches:/X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_Slowroll/
Enabled        : Yes
GPG Check      : (r ) Yes
Priority       : 99 (default priority)
Autorefresh    : On
Keep Packages  : Off
Type           : rpm-md
GPG Key URI    :
Path Prefix    : /
Parent Service :
Keywords       : ---
Repo Info Path : /etc/zypp/repos.d/openSUSE_Slowroll_2.repo
MD Cache Path  : /var/cache/zypp/raw/openSUSE_Slowroll_2


2)
To verify that the actual packages are found:

zypper se -s libvpl-tools libcttmetrics
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...

S  | Name               | Type       | Version   | Arch   | Repository
---+--------------------+------------+-----------+--------+------------------
   | libcttmetrics1_0_0 | package    | 1.2.0-2.1 | x86_64 | openSUSE_Slowroll
   | libvpl-tools       | package    | 1.2.0-2.1 | x86_64 | openSUSE_Slowroll
   | libvpl-tools       | srcpackage | 1.2.0-2.1 | noarch | openSUSE_Slowroll
   | libvpl-tools-devel | package    | 1.2.0-2.1 | x86_64 | openSUSE_Slowroll



3)
Try to install both packages

2 Problems:
Problem: 1: nothing provides 'libvpl-tools-1.2.0' needed by the to be installed libcttmetrics1_0_0-1.2.0-2.1.x86_64
Problem: 2: nothing provides 'libvpl-tools-1.2.0' needed by the to be installed libcttmetrics1_0_0-1.2.0-2.1.x86_64

Problem: 1: nothing provides 'libvpl-tools-1.2.0' needed by the to be installed libcttmetrics1_0_0-1.2.0-2.1.x86_64
 Solution 1: do not install libcttmetrics1_0_0-1.2.0-2.1.x86_64
 Solution 2: break libcttmetrics1_0_0-1.2.0-2.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

Do I do something wrong as 3) doesn't work?
