No relevant problem visible on https://status.opensuse.org/

Should it please be solved "by itself" after some time ?

As far as I recall, the main oss/non-oss repos are not updated. The updates come via the update repos
edit: Sorry I misread your post.

mrmazda · 03-01-2023, 06:40 PM

Start by removing obsolete, unnecessary and invalid repos. These are the important ones for most Leap users:

Code:

# | Alias        | Enabled | GPG Check | URI
--+--------------+---------+-----------+------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 | NonOSS       | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/non-oss/
2 | OSS          | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.4/repo/oss/
3 | PackmanE     | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/packman/suse/openSUSE_Leap_15.4/Essentials
4 | Update       | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.4/oss/
5 | UpdateBP     | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.4/backports/
6 | UpdateNonOSS | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.4/non-oss/
7 | UpdateSLE    | Yes     | (r ) Yes  | http://download.opensuse.org/update/leap/15.4/sle/

Alternate URIs are possible for all, but these are the basics. All of Packman rather than essentials may be substituted, as well as alternate mirror(s). http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/packman...USE_Leap_15.4/ Those with e.g. SUSE:SLE-15-SP1:GA are obsolete remnants of broken 1-click installations. Web searches for packages should only be used to locate packages, not install them.

Well I didn't know that. I did not see any such notice on that webpage offering 1-click install. I've used 1-click install because zypper could not locate package I needed.

mrmazda · 03-18-2023, 03:36 AM

No one with the capability to fix the 1-click problem has come forth to do so. It's a complicated problem to solve due to openSUSE containing its very own packages along with packages from SLE, which have two distinct update repos, but are combined in others. Simple command line tool opi can locate and install packages without corrupting repos, but apparently it's no simple task to convert to a web interface.
