Description Michal Zugec 2007-08-29 07:56:17 UTC 
libzypp-3.18.4-3
I select several packages in yast2-packagemanages then it shows progress-bar with description that first package will be downloaded and then it finished.

In log file (I will attach it) I can see:

Comment 2 Klaus Kämpf 2007-08-29 08:18:51 UTC 
y2log shows
"Media source http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ does not contain the desired media"

IIRC, this is known and fixed. Duncan ?

Michal, did YaST provide a understandable error message ?
Comment 3 Michal Zugec 2007-08-29 08:21:52 UTC 
No, without any message (no error, no warning, no inform)
Comment 4 Stanislav Visnovsky 2007-08-29 08:24:45 UTC 
Seems to be triggered by the recent redirector change for Factory.
Comment 5 Michal Zugec 2007-08-29 09:00:48 UTC 
After I removed Factory source and add it again it works as expected.
But YaST (from libzypp) definitely should provide some warning to user that there is something wrong with inst_source
Comment 6 Stanislav Visnovsky 2007-08-29 09:42:24 UTC 
This case is really very special - repo changing the type.
Comment 7 Michal Zugec 2007-08-29 10:36:18 UTC 
Lado, this is probably YaST problem, that doesn't handle error from libzypp?
Comment 8 Klaus Kämpf 2007-08-29 15:08:26 UTC 
Look at bug #304200 for detecting repo change.

Keeping this bug open to improve YaSTs error reporting, adapting summary.
