Installation sources disappear

Last week I installed SuSE 10.1 on my laptop and the installation sources
known by the ZEN applet keep disappearing. If you right click the icons
and choose for Configure there just gone. Sometimes one is left, sometimes
none at all. It's not a matter of network connection. It happens when I'm
online/offline.

The sources are still available in Yast but they won't come back in ZEN.
The only way to get them back it by adding them yourself. But within 2 or
3 days, there gone again.

Are there more people with this problem?

Regards,

Rico

Yes, and I cannot find a pattern. Sometimes all sources will stay for a week
or two, sometimes one, two or all will disappear after one day.

On the bright side: I know all the longish URL's to the sources by heart
know, so adding them again is a quick procedure .

True, but I'm lazy
It feels like checking the website for new versions again...
You know, back in the days...

Same problem here. I have noticed it today for the first time. Another

This isn't new, it's been happening on and off for weeks

It may be related to the yast -> zmd installation source sync problems.
There's a bug on bugzilla about it and they're working on it, I think
it's fixed in 10.2 alpha 2.

Yeah, checking the "Most annyoing bugs" for 10.2 Alpha it seems it is much more mature than 10.1 shipping <G>

Please don't send me support related e-mail unless I ask you to do so.

But why wait for 10.2? If the bug is solved, would't it be
possible to release it on 10.1?

I'm sure it will be eventually, it's just in alpha 2 already because,
well, it's an *alpha* release . Once they test it some more to make
sure it doesn't create more problems than it solves, I'm sure it'll go
up on the 10.1 updates.
