Hello,
When I have two YAST repositories (e.g., SUSE's and Packman) and I want to get online updates from both, how do I configure that?
In case it hasn't yet become clear, the answer is: you don't. YaST Online Update only handles packages that were part of an original SuSE distribution. Packages installed from other repositories (via YaST or otherwise) will not participate in YOU updates. In fact, if you replace a SuSE-supplied package with a version from an alternate source (e.g., a KDE upgrade), those packages will no longer be updated by YOU. Thus it is only meaningful to configure a single source of YOU updates, since they all hold the exact same updates (modulo differences in the time at which they all become synced up with new updates from SuSE).

Thanks in advance for any answer,
Joachim
