Where is the actual problem, Ladislav?
Comment 3 Ladislav Michnovic 2006-02-13 14:58:36 UTC 
I would blame the mirrors for that. For example
http://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/suse/suse/i386/update/FACTORY/patches/
 is empty directory.
Details from YOU:
Patch information retrieval failed.
error
HTTP return code: 404 (URL: http://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/linux/distributions/suse/suse/i386/update/FACTORY/patches/directory.3)
Comment 4 Michael Gross 2006-02-13 15:09:52 UTC 
OK this is probably a synchronisation problem. Sorry but we cannot handle this here. Maby you should write to the admins of the mirros ;)
Comment 5 Ladislav Michnovic 2006-02-13 15:18:52 UTC 
What is the source for mirrors? Every mirror which could choosed in YOU has empty that directory.
Comment 6 Ladislav Michnovic 2006-02-15 16:01:17 UTC 
I assume that this is the source :
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/FACTORY/patches
and it is empty. I don't catch the point why updates are distributing trough some unknown server and that information is only on opensuse.org web page.
IMHO many users search patches as before on SuSE ftp server and mirrors.
What is your opinion?
