When adding a repository, retrieving the metadata is the right thing to do to detect problems. If you start to download metadata when starting a package manager, errors will be quite confusing. > > Why? With the current solution, each time you launch the installation source > module metadata is fetched. This is wrong and we want to fix this for 10.3. Downloading (resp. refreshing) repository metadata should not be done when starting a software managment application.
