Agreed. What sense would the autorefresh setting have if it wouldn't affect automatic refreshing. Ciao, Michael. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org

The autorefresh is meant to trigger refresh when you do something for which repo data are needed, and it is not an explicit refresh call (which is meant to refresh all repos). Which is probably the case of the updater applet. But if you call zypp-refresh on the command line, you could as well expect that it will refresh all repos. j. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org

Hmm. I for instance switch off auto-refresh on repos which are not always available (for instance on my laptop I have some SuSE internal repos, that can only be accessed from inside SuSE or over RAS) and would cause hanging if they were touched automatically.
