Hi,
454.53 MB to go: 166pkgs, the Yast section: packages not found. every pkg fails, refreshing does nor help. ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/factory/repo/oss
File'./suse/x86_64/yast2-vm-2.16.7-1.11.x86_64.rpm' not found on medium 'ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/factory/repo/oss'
Well, yes, that's known problem we face all the time. Factory can change while you're updating to the snapshot. YaST/Zypper will offer to download all packages first before installing them but this doesn't work yet.
Confirmed - factory was replaced upstream, and it was in the course of disappearing on ftp.gwdg.de just during your update. According to the URL, you are using ftp.gwdg.de directly as entry point? YMMV. Btw, what does zypper do in such a case? Does it restart the update in such a case? It should do the same as Yum, IMO: download metadata + packages, and when that fails at any point, you'd refresh the local metadata and start over, and once you have a consistent state on your system (including packages) _then_ start the actual update.
