It is annoying, but software management is under heavy development and it is better all the time. Though, I complained on fact than YOU doesn't need to update world, but only one repository and I was not satisfied with comment. Bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=304211 was closed as invalid, but if you can see the same symptoms than please reopen it and attach /var/log/YaST2/y2log. To get very verbose output try from console: zypper -vvvvv ref | tee > refresh it will update all repositories, and console output will be written in file refresh. BTW, the best place for complains about Beta is opensuse-factory mail list. For developers is now very busy time and they probably follow bugzilla and factory list.
