@tinita https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1092187#step/test_distribution/6 shows that it was not just missing auto-refresh. I put another comment in https://github.com/openSUSE/zypper/issues/312#issuecomment-557444862 . It seems we need the retry after all but now we can reference the github issue with record_soft_failure. Care to do this?

Maybe we should wait for an explanation in the referenced issue.
Also I'm not sure yet how to do the retry. My solution in bash in my first PR was not the way to go obviously.

Your initial PR was fine except that 1. We were told "there is no problem when we refresh" which is apparently not true and 2. we should use the retry in all occassions of using zypper or zypper in at least. So please feel welcome to try a change again or unassign the ticket otherwise.

https://github.com/openSUSE/zypper/issues/312#issuecomment-559041932 suggests: zypper ref -f devel:openQA

https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1097279#step/test_distribution/4 shows the successful execution of zypper ref -f in a production test. As previously the test was also not failing that often I think we should be ok to mark it as resolved now but reopen it when we see that we actually still need a retry for zypper. Thank you.

The openqa_worker test failed yesterday because of the same problem: https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/1136753#step/openqa_worker/6
Seems we need a zypper refresh there also.
