for the search, you need cache, for the cache you need metadata. Should ZYpper exit and tell the user to refresh, or should it ask the user whether to refresh without exiting?
hrmmm.. I think neither of those.. why ask if it knows that a "refresh" is needed ? zypper search foobar shlould IMHO automatically refresh if **and only if** there is no metadata,and hence no cache.
In the case of YaST, should it download and refresh when adding the repos in inst_source, or should it do it during startup of the package selector?
During the startup of the package selector, the user may "just" want to add a source to install packages later. ;)
