If we are talking about this specific case there aren't "so many", there is just one. Unselect it in YaST or use "zypper in fio -gnuplot". If we are talking about a more general problem, * In zypper zypper in --no-recommends /etc/zypp/zypper.conf:installRecommends * Globally /etc/zypp/zypp.conf:solver.onlyRequires (sure, it would be nice to have GUI tools for it) We have the whole set of dependencies: Requires, Recommends and Suggests (plus soft dependencies the other way around). Just use whatever fits best. But in any case in this specific example there exists a relationship between the two packages. The correct fix surely is not to ignore the fact. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
