Ya know, I've made this stupid mistake more than once, and I KNOW others have as well, because I've had private mail from some here admitting doing the same thing. Actually, it's an error in Yast, as it doesn't do something that it should, and when it's late at night and I'm tired, I totally forget to go into Yast, under "Change Source Of Installation" and do a refresh for the supplemental address!! Thanks, as your comment made me realize I'd screwed up again. ;)
Yeah, it's just a habit with me. Whenever I need to run YAST Install & Remove, I always start with a Refresh in the Change Source of Installation module.
I should get into the habit of doing that as well.
I've always assumed this is not a bug, but a deliberate design decision. I think the cost of a Refresh in Change Source as well as the subsidiary cost in the start-up time of Install & Remove made the designers decide not to do it automatically on each launch of Install & Remove.
Maybe. Anyway, I had 450+MB to install tonight, so I'm greatfull that I average 600k a sec. download or it would have been a LONG update. ;) Fred -- Planet Earth - a subsidiary of Microsoft.
