It is just RPM packaged patch, open the RPM and pull out the "unified_diff.patch" which you can then apply with patch :D

Well patches are made to be looked at
If a patch does not apply, you most often just need to readjust it a bit...

You don't need zypper. Just run pkcon refresh.

(A decent OS update sequence would refresh the package cache automatically but that would be too much to expect, I suppose.)

These are separate actions, and there's a good reason they're separate.

What would that reason be, if I may ask?

"Hey, we are updating most packages on the system, almost certainly breaking the package cache consistency. But hey, let's keep updating the cache a 'separate action'. It makes perfect sense!"

Wrong.
Take Debian stable for example:
You can keep installing packages that fit the current level of up-to-dateness of your system.
You can succesfully install software without updating the sources databases.
That makes sense.
Not for my personal habits, not for a rolling release distro, but it does make sense.

AFAIK Sailfish OS works on the same principles, it's a release-based distro with software catalogs stored locally.

I wish it were. I asked about that a hundred times. Why on earth do OS updates have to be huge, monolithic, 400+ MB releases? Why not release one package at a time, like every other Linux distribution under the sun? But no, Jolla knows better.

And then refuses to refresh the package cache.

Especially as all packages are stored with their specific release on a repo which is tied to the OS release!
And still NOT publicly accesible!!!
