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.

Please read ALL of my post.

I think it is inherent to the host. It sometimes happens with some repos (yesterday e.g. I had constant failure for a specific file...then magically normalized.
Well, this is the third day.
You wish https with packman which is also possible with: https://ftp.fau.de/packman/suse/openSUSE_Leap_15.2/ the URL has the correct repo info file.
Thank you. I will try this other link.
Hope that helps. If it has to be gwdg for some reason, maybe try if it is https: just ad with http. If it works you know were the issue comes from.
And again, the same thing happens with this fau link; zypper times out, browser connects immediately. Leslie --
