Repository update problems

Hello,
Two days ago, I got system update message (I update system using Konsole) that I have 60+ new updates (all fromPacman Repo, if I remember). It was extremely slow speed, and, about one hour after started, I stopped it, and wanted update it again in the morning.

In the morning and on, started prblems: first with extremely slow refreshing repository refreshing, and also with alerts that it is not right address (something like that).

Now (this morning) I gor updates just from SUSE Linux Enterprise 15) No other repository did not updated.

My questions are:

  • what happened with all of those uninstalled updates from 2 days before (that I mentioned on the start of post)?
  • what happened with all of repositories (why are they notbeing updating when I type sudo zypper install").

Thank you for answering my questions,

Please do not tell, show us:
zypper lr -d

For zypper up, I got this:

localhost:/home/zlatic # zypper up
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Nothing to do.
localhost:/home/zlatic # 

And, yes… in serbian Da means “yes”, ne mean “no”. :slight_smile:

download.opensuse.org is a redirector, it redirects to a server near by you and maybe this server has problems or is slow.

I guess most understood that, but when you want to avoid this in this English language part of the forums, precede your commands with LANG=C ,
like

LANG=C zypper lr -d

Check for yourself and see the diffeence :wink:

Thank you very much! I willl do this in the future, but, please, don’t be angry if I forget it sometimes. And be welcome to alert me again! :slight_smile:

What @Sauerland says, likely the server download.opensuse.org selects is slow.

What you can try without updating the url’s manually is:
