using custom repository via AutoYast is not employed

I've asked this in a SLES forum, but no feedback yet:

  https://forums.suse.com/discussion/14815/using-custom-repository-via-autoyast-
is-not-employed

And, I've sent email to [email protected], but that messsage
is hung up, awaiting moderator approval.

To repeat those details here:

I'm exploring maintaining a private repository, and am trying to
employ it via AutoYast, all under SLES 12 SP5.

I'm hoping someone can provide some guidance.

I realize this is an opensuse list, but I'm hoping autoyast syntax
is the same across these distributions.

I added this to my autoinst.xml file:

  <add-on>
    <add_on_others config:type="list">
      <listentry>
        <media_url><![CDATA[http://10.153.19.116/repo/]]></media_url>
        <product>Example Product</product>
        <alias>example</alias>
        <product_dir>/</product_dir>
        <priority>30</priority>
      </listentry>
    </add_on_others>
  </add-on>

But, when I also declare a package from that repository to install,
YaST throws errors:

  2020-06-18 17:31:15 <3> install(18178) [Ruby] modules/AutoinstSoftware.rb:1096
 Cannot select following packages for installation:
  2020-06-18 17:31:15 <3> install(18178) [Ruby] modules/AutoinstSoftware.rb:1099
   java-13_0_2-openjdk : The package is not available. (selected by AutoYaST con
figuration file)

And I see no evidence that YaST attempted to process my repository
in the logs.

I can confirm the repository has the package:

  localhost:~ # zypper addrepo http://10.153.19.116/repo/ example
  Adding repository 'example'
  ..............................................[done]
  Repository 'example' successfully added

  URI         : http://10.153.19.116/repo/
  Enabled     : Yes
  GPG Check   : Yes
  Autorefresh : No
  Priority    : 99 (default priority)

  Repository priorities are without effect. All enabled repositories share the
  same priority.

  localhost:~ # zypper pa -ir example  | grep java-13_0_2-openjdk
  v  | example    | java-13_0_2-openjdk             | 13.0.2-8.2 | x86_64
