They said it was going to be like this.

Thanks for the heads up Houghi.
Just did that - sources still do not appear to sync between ZEN and YOU,
still can't add a local source using YaST and ZEN chokes on adding a
Packman source -

Failed to parse XML metadata: Unsigned file '/repodata/repomd.xml (file:/var/cache/zmd/web/files/packman.unixheads.com/suse/10.1/)'

This can be added via YaST - Installation source, but complains about a
digital signature.

Hello,

I am still experiencing the same problem you reported. I just installed a
completely new and clean system with 10.1 and the FIRST thing I did after
logging on was to shut down the zen-updater icon and run the Online Update
via YaST.

Just like the security notice from Novell reported, the only updated
offered when I did this was for the libzypp, so I ran that and updated it.
I decided to reboot the system just to see what happened with the updater.
It came up and reported 65 updates available. I updated and it worked just
fine, BUT, it is still not possible to add either packman nor guru as
repositories without getting the error about parsing the xml metadata. The
Novell notice claims that one of the bugfixes was related to unsigned
repositories but either I did something wrong or this is not working.

Any suggestions?

Alejandro
