Now that I've upgraded to Leap 15.2, I'm trying to re-add the Packman repository, but when I try to refresh it, zypper tells me

Well, just try the same address with a browser. I try now, and it is there, and zypper ref works. It is possible that when you tried it was down or was missing a crucial metadata file. You could try a trick. Identify the file that defines the repository in your system and edit it. Mine is /etc/zypp/repos.d/EXT_Packman.repo, and I use this syntax to add mirrors: baseurl=http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Leap_${releasever}/ https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/openSUSE_Leap_${releasever}/ (two lines) -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
