In short, all http requests fail. There is no place to set the proxy credentials, and I try to set the auth parameters in the URL:
smart config --set http-proxy=http://username:password@10.48.112.6
then it either fails, saying it can't resolve the malformed URL
So, is this the end of the road for smart?
No, it is not. But you need the package "python-curl" for smart to support proxies. Verify that you have this installed. It's not in the 10.1 installation repository, 10.2 will have it. For 10.1, you can find unofficial packages here: http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/cthiel1/SL-10.1
The old yast worked fine
In which way doesn't YaST work for you?
since all the repos could be reached via ftp, which is wide open here
You can reach YaST and smart repos via FTP as well. Just look at the mirror lists in the opensuse.org wiki, there are many FTP mirrors available and you can also try just replacing http:// with ftp:// for your favourite mirror.
