My experience with 10.2 has been just as full of update problems, and I
haven't even done anything remotely weird with packman repos or anything.
All I did was install from the DVD iso, pick most optional packages to
install, then occasionally try to run updates.
For the first several weeks, I got no updates and when I asked here was
told "Oh, everyone knows that's a rotten repo, use one of these instead".
So if its a rotten repo, why is it in yast's database of repos to pick from?
I didn't choose it, all I did was let yast pick an update repo for me.
After that I forced yast to pick a different one, and it actually came
up with one of the ones folks suggested as a "good" repo, but now for
several weeks, any attempt to click on the taskbar update icon and say
"OK, Update" has been met with this nonsense:
