Have looked into the URL and they are as expected. I get the idea that somewhere in  zypper dup gets it info which repros I want them to visit a dowbload is somewhere hidden.

Case: In the repositorie list in Yast I blanked the platter repro and ran zypper dup. I got the same info as before that the repro dowbload was not available.

Does zypper use an own repositories file?
