Thanks.

so I tried
again to add the very same URL with rug, where the name can be chosen.

ERROR: Could not
add 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/ ':
Failed to parse XML metadata: Can't add repository at
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/:
Unknown source type for
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/

yeah, the metadata is in:

http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/

(hint: add the dir with the repodata entry).

So, will work if you do:

rug sa -t yum http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse OSS-factory

You can either use yum or zypp as type of the server (i.e.,zypp works as a meta server type, so will find out the actual type of the server by his own).
