[opensuse] installation_sources command won't add a new source


Dear all,

I have tried to add an installation source for zypper by either calling
zypper sa, or using installation_sources -s <URI> directly, but each
time it fails as scribed below.

Does anyone know how one ought to add sources?

# zypper sa http://opensuse.linux.edu.lv/update/11.1/rpm/x86_64
3198 zmd
ZENworks Management Daemon is running.

Simon.

PS. The list of installation sources on the Novel site is hopelessly out
of date. The majority of EU based sites either don't work, or when
x86_64 is, then these actually have i386. Rather annoying.

PPS. I tried to remove sources from the list but this also failed:
# installation_sources -d -a nfs://xxx31/export/sles10sp2sdk/
