It's quite funny, because I've got exactly the same problem as yours, maybe I ended on the same project as you?... – Pierre Jun 16 '23 at 07:45

I think the best option to install a package and ensure all the dependencies are ok, is implement a local repository, this is an offline method to solve the problem.
To execute this procedure, you need to follow the next steps.
First you need to upload the OS ISO to the machine or attach it as an external disk. Once the ISO is on the server, you need to mount as a FS, with the following command.
mount /SLE-15-SP3-Full-x86_64-GM-Media1.iso /mnt
NOTE: For the command above, please replace the path and name or your specific ISO.
When the ISO is mounted, you need to especified to the OS that you want to implement a local repo.
Add repo zypper ar /mnt SLES-Packages
Build repo cache
zypper ref
Now you can start to use this repo, you can try searching for a package.
Search packages
zypper se -s yast
