If a package has a DRM issue, the openSUSE repos may not contain the version that accesses the DRM protected content. Packman libraries, however, will probably allow access. So, it is quite common that one gets media apps from Packman. If the openSUSE repo gets a new version before Packman, zypper may want to install that newer version. If you allow that, you may no longer be able to access DRM content. So, once you have decided to use the package from Packman, you probably want to stay with it. Even if the openSUSE repo may get a new version before Packman. This is true of many packages for various reasons. The --no-allow-vendor-change just means that zypper should not update a package from a different repo without asking if that is what you really want.
No, it will not propose to change to the other repo unless it sees no other way, and then asking. Otherwise, it will stay at lower release numbers to keep the vendor, as far as possible. For instance, another installed package may request a much newer version... - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
