I cant update packman and vlc repositories.
when i try to update them from yast it gets stuck at "downloading:http://packman…/repodata/repomd.xml.key 100%’
same for vlc

other repositories update fine but this two dont.
what should I do?

then adding it anew

#3

i did this several times
but to no avail

p.s.: this doesn’t happen in smart

#4

in a terminal go su

do

zypper refresh

#5

i deleted packman and applied and finished so now i cant add it so i cant refresh it tooo
i mean its not in software repositories anymore and when adding it gets stuck again

Hi
Strange, I don’t either since I vacumed it…lol I would have a look at
the zypper configuration file (/etc/zypp/zypp.conf) for pointers to
files and down in the /var/cache/zypp subdirectories and remove the
offending references.
