reinforcing my thought of a race condition, if I log out, let it sit a while (about half a minute) then the problem does not occur, at least in my limited testing.

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.

ok just waiting about 10 seconds before relogging in clears up the issue on my very fast production machine.

Hmm... I will try again, but several times I have been over 3 or 8 hrs and this has happened.

mmm.. nope. restarted it. logged in, looked around the network a bit to make sure it was all "on" and ready, logged out.

Just shy of two hours came back and logged in, and went to repo manager, unchecked and checked a repo and clicked apply - Error Could not change the repo

Logout button ok, restart, shutdown and everything else is grey.
