   Yast2 Online Update normally works better if there are updates to   
   install, my 15.2 system is up to date.   
   Yast2 Software Management, Versions does show a   
   2.53.3-lp152.3.4.1-x86_64 alongside the   
   2.53.5.1-lp152.3.7.1-x86_64 I have installed, both are in the Main   
   Update Repository.   
   Very interesting, but stoopid.  (that dates me!)
