I had a problem with packman mirrors and changed my repo to have:

I do not know that this actually does anything, but I no longer have a problem with packman mirrors. maybe worth a try...
Now THAT is interesting! It implies that the zypp library can deal with multiple sources, step and repeat.
it means I could, for example, start with UWaterloo, which is my geographically closest, and set min_speed to something that is prejudicial to poor performance there. Then, when that' rejected, try something less local, or even, finally, mirrorbrain.
This is not how it seems to work. I was also intrigued by the possibility.
If I added a list of sites, there is a syntax error. I could only change to a specific one. I tried space and comma delimiters. No difference.
It worked the way I did, posted on another mail days ago.
Really? I tried that and mine complains. Do you have one url per line? I had a long line with all the urls. e-mail formatting may be part of the problem.
my repo with the url's listed as I suggested is here where it can be viewed w/o any altered formatting: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~paka/Tumbleweed.packman.repo and I get no syntax error. also using: zypper -vvvv refresh Tumbleweed.packman editing the url list to force the first url to fail, I get: Verbosity: 6 Non-option program arguments: 'Tumbleweed.packman' Initializing Target Specified repositories: Tumbleweed.packman Checking whether to refresh metadata for Tumbleweed.packman Retrieving: http://google.com/repodata/repomd.xml ...........................................................[not found] Retrieving: http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/repodata/repomd.xml .................................[done] Repository 'Tumbleweed.packman' is up to date.
