Anyone else experiencing this too?

These packages are nothing to do with Packman

Please post result of

zypper lr -d

[please_try_again]

I was about to ask the same thing. packman (unixheads) fails to refresh for me.

True, looking closer the python package is not from Packman, but the nvidia-settings is. I noticed Packman has version 1.2 of said package available, but the 1.1 version is missing.

But your packman mirror is responding. Only the US site is down.

Yep, that's what I did.

As mentioned earlier, only the US site is down. The base domain, Unixheads, stuff that matters, reports that the mirror server is down, however, last updated message was from 12.05.2011.

Switching to the Austria/Germany repositories, followed by a refesh, resolves the problem. The access problem is exacerbated by the inability to "Skip Autorefresh" in YAST. It appears that DNS resolution is NOT handled by a server in Sweden, resulting in a very long "timeout" (twice) to terminate YAST and switch repositories.

[please_try_again]

What do you mean by inability to "Skip Autorefresh"? If autorefresh is disabled for some repos, YaST won't try to access them. I have been doing security updates yesterday and today on several machines without changing the packman mirror - because autorefresh was off for this repo.

Learning something here !

All my repositories are (now were) set to Autorefresh. When I checked for updates, YAST sat, then timed out on Packman. <sigh>

Thanks for the assist!
