When access Yast, Installation Sources a dialog for one of the installation sources comes up which says, Downloading Files.... Download http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source//suse/setup/descr/packages

It seem to do this no only on Installation Sources, but anything that accesses these sources. Why is it trying to download anything when I am just trying to get into the installation source dialog box?

Yes, I find it extremely annoying to have to wait for the downloading of files, just because I want to change or add an installation source.
As a matter of fact, one of my computers with 10.2 has been downloading files for over 15 minutes now, and all I want to do is change a URL of a repository.

This will change in 10.3

Because the LATER and REMIND resolutions have been removed, the resolution of this bug has changed from LATER to WONTFIX. If this bug needs to be reconsidered, reopen it and set a future "Target Milestone for Fix."
