Thanks, I got it from there.

I wasn't using YOU (part of yast2), but rather the 'update entire system'
function of yast(1). When I am in a location that has a fast net
connection, I prefer it to YOU, since it grabs all the updates, not just
the critical/security ones.
  I've not been too fond of YOU, since it seems to ignore the rpm
database, and wants to waste time re-downloading packages that I've
already updated manually. Is that getting fixed in 8.0?
