You can write a mirror in the config. The easiest manner (IMO) is editing the file:
/etc/zypp/repos.d/download.opensuse.org-oss.repo:
[download.opensuse.org-oss] name=Main Repository (OSS) enabled=1 autorefresh=1 baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/42.2/repo/oss/ path=/ type=yast2 keeppackages=0
Just comment out the "baseurl" line and write your own. This is not detected as a repo change by yast/zypper.
I knew of a way to alter that and use your own local redirector, using a local apache server - but I don't recall how, I used that two years ago, I think, for packman. I may be able to find that out another day if you are interested.
Finally have a chance to follow up on this thread. Right after I posted this thread, a friend was in a motorcycle accident and I had to take about a week off to take care of her at the hospital. Since that time, it seems that my original problem has been fixed with regard to the mirrors. I have another repo issue now with 42.3, but I think I will start a new thread for that one, since it is similar but a new issue. Thanks to everyone that responded. A lot of this is above my head, but it was helpful to gain some knowledge of the problem. -- George Box: 42.2 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD Phenom IIX4 | 64 | 32GB Laptop #1: 42.2 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | AMD FX 7TH GEN | 64 | 32GB Laptop #2: 42.2 | KDE Plasma 5.8 | Core i5 | 64 | 8GB -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
