more improvements to download infra
I now opened https://github.com/openSUSE/libzypp/pull/416 Thanks for motivating me to do it.

Are there any good tutorials of using the libZypp ABI?
I already studied the source of the YaST2 Packager (Ruby), the YaST PKG Bindings (C++) however this works providing bindings for Ruby written in C++, the official "documentation", the actual source of libzypp (C++), the source of zypper (C++) and how the Foreign Function Interface of Rust works ofc.
- GIMP and Libreoffice with GNOME - is it inevitable?

Zypper pre-execution scripts
It should actually be libzypp that handles that, or specifically a plugin. There is a page in the docs on writing plugins but that is way over my head.^^ Hope you'll find a way to do what you are looking for, good luck!

Alternative download location for advanced users from NA
I did experience some weird behavior around that place as well, and concluded with https://github.com/openSUSE/libzypp/pull/306 , which I really hope should fix the problem.

Seriously, please fix zypper dup + curl interaction
File a feature request at https://github.com/openSUSE/libzypp/, you won't get far by posting on a user forum like reddit

Keeping a base kernel number with multiversion
The way the code is written (https://github.com/openSUSE/libzypp/blob/master/zypp/PurgeKernels.cc) I think you always need to specify the full kernel version, but not necessarily the release number.

TW Update servers really slow again - is this a spreading problem?
Some sort of poorly understood bug in curl, some unknown broken script/botnet heavily loading the server, and who knows what else https://github.com/openSUSE/zypper/issues/399 https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/7PW7PTACCWCNSN76T66AOQ5SARY4XCEL/#YLPRFJOIN6HKTTGFY5P4N3PXSY3AG73K
- curl error 16 when dup Tumbleweed

May be related to https://github.com/openSUSE/zypper/issues/399 , but initial complain there was for occasional error on rpm download and you see consistent error on metadata refresh
