Broken repository links for "official" tumbleweed repositories

Open mwilck opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

The repo links for the "official release" of tumbleweed offered by software.opensuse.org seem to be broken.

Example:

http://software.opensuse.org, select tumbleweed, search for any package ("bash", for example).

Click on "Direct Install, openSUSE Tumblbeweed, Version 1.3.1, 1.77 MB"), open with "YaST 1-Click Install, click through following dialogs.

=> Error opening repository at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory/snapshot/, which indeed doesn't exist.

In the special case of "bash", that doesn't hurt much, but software.opensuse.org also finds lots of other packages (and hits the same error for them) that don't exist in the current tumbleweed repos, e.g. "gnome-shell-extensions", "icedtea-web".

If the repository doesn't exist, why "Direct Install" button still shows a official version, where did it get the info?
