Is there a way to choose that ftp5 site permanently, or a quick way of switching?
Yes. Each *.repo file in /etc/zypp/repos.d/ is a component of your total repository configuration. Files there with such extensions as .repobak or .repogwdg are ignored. You can create a whole fleet of files there or elsewhere that can be copied to or from valid .repo files according to what repos you want to be active, and as quickly as renaming or copying any small text file. Save Printing.repo to some other name, then edit it to change from download.opensuse.org/ to ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/ if you really want to limit yourself to one single mirror that may or may not be up to date or overloaded when you need to use it.
I have this:
download.opensuse.org-lxde.repo repo-debug-update-non-oss.repo ftp.gwdg.de-suse.repo repo-debug-update.repo home:darkhado:openSUSE.repo repo-non-oss.repo network:chromium.repo repo-oss.repo openSUSE-13.2-0.repo repo-source.repo opensuse-guide.org-repo.repo repo-update-non-oss.repo Printing.repo repo-update.repo repo-debug.repo
Can you give me a yes/no on these?
Yes/no as to what? One must look inside each and see whether enabled=0 or enabled=1 and autorefresh=0 or autorefresh=1 and keeppackages=0 or keeppackages=1 to determine their states. =0 means disabled, =1 means enabled.
Are those the repositories which online update reads?
Assuming each contains entirely valid content, and all are enabled, they will all be combined to comprise the entirety of packages available to your installation.
If I delete Printing.repo do the packages that were installed from it remain?
As long as certain conditions are kept in place, yes. As long as VendorChange is kept disallowed, they should remain. If you take the trouble to lock them they will certainly remain.
If I delete Printing.repo will it update any longer?
If it's not there, what it contains cannot be found by any of the tools designed to use them.
zypper al <packagename> will lock any package, installed or not, until such time as you do zypper rl <packagename>, or you do something with zypper or yast to induce it to ask you if you wish the lock to be removed and you answer yes.
OK. So If al locks a package. What locks a repository?
I don't believe exists anything fitting that description. You can give individual repos stronger authority by setting "priority=" to a number lower than 99.
