It seems that most things related to YaST and rug/zmd are in /var. Take a look at /var/lib/zypp/db/sources/a727c04ccf8bec4dcfd5d093571e8abb (whatever file name you have will be different) /var/lib/YaST2/install.inf /var/lib/zmd/zypp-owned-catalogs Alternately, you could do a "rug sd" command to get rid of it, then a "rug sa" command to add the new source. That's probably the "better" route in the long run. Note that either of those could run for quite a while.
