Out of curiosity, why do we have remote magnetic tape software installed by default with those tools at all? They are reccomends, I get that, but recommends get installed during standard dup, which makes it annoying, especially when all of that collides with other package. I feel like magnetic tapes are used for very specific usecases nowadays (data centers, mainframes) and we don't really need all of that, especially on desktops.
A quick search of the patterns indicates we are not installing those packages from there so I guess the question then becomes what packages are pulling those in as dependencies, or it could just be that your machine was setup before we made major changes to the patterns and something else used to pull them in.
That is not so hard to guess: mike@lion:~> rpm -q --recommends tar mt tar-lang = 1.30 tar-rmt = 1.30 xz mike@lion:~> rpm -q --recommends star star-rmt = 1.5.3 mike@lion:~> rpm -q --recommends cpio cpio-lang = 2.12 cpio-mt = 2.12 rmt (on Leap 15.0).
