After removing and re-adding Packman (using cut-and-paste from https://en.opensuse.org/Additional_package_repositories) several times with the same results, I tried using YaST's Software Repositories tool. Using the Add button and selecting Community Repositories, YaST tells me
| Unable to download list of repositories | or no repositories defined
However, I'm able to browse to https://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/ and view its contents. I also tried disabling privoxy, but that didn't help. Is there some sort of cache entry that needs to be purged? I've never seen this before.
