From my point of view this is a bug in the package dependency resolver of YaST.
Therefore discussed in person with Stefan <schubi>. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The result of some more discussion with Ralf <rhafer>, Schubi, and Michael <ma>:
Currently there is no way to fix this dependency in a different way. Even if the packages would provide a 'Suggests' the package manager wouldn't provide the information to the UI.
YaST wouldn't install those Suggested/Recommended packages if samba-client is selected for installation? Or do you mean those 32-bit would be installed, but user couldn't unselect them in the UI? That would be bad, but still better than current state, because I assume user could uninstall them later without complains that the dependency is broken. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As said with comment #4 we discussed this very intensive. Michael and Schubi convinced me to stay with the current approach. I can't get your point why to change the current state as it works well from the users point of view.
Well, it was you who opened a bug that criticizes current approach: (In reply to comment #0 from Lars Müller)
The requirement was introduced to fix bug #224418. From my point of this this is a workaround and should be fixed.
At all this might reduce the amount of installed packages.
Currently, yast modules has to care about system architecture and they install some additional packages that may but may not be needed. I think such architecture dependency should be part of package themselves, it has no sense to have such check in e.g. yast2-samba-client. That's what we have the tags like "Recommends" for, so why don't you want to use it? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From my point of view I burned already enough work time on this. Plus the time of you, Michael, and Schubi.
Feel free to fix it the 'right' way if your time permits. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
