Created an attachment (id=185227)
 --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=185227)
archive with testcase, screenshot and logs

situation: 10.3 GM installed from media ("KDE" type of installation) and online
update run at the end of installation. After first run (patch for YaST2), the
second set of patches contained a patch for mono. As I don't want to have any
mono package on my system, I clicked on that patch to see mono packages and
marked them all as "tabooed". Forgot to mark patch itself as tabooed too.

what I got: Automatic check of dependencies showed me a set of conflicts where
even conflicts among packages marked as tabooed were listed!

what I expected: one conflict listed: "patch bytefx-data-mysql can't be
installed"

what was behind: when I moved the window with solver results, I saw that
instead of reporting the conflict with patch, solver silently removed taboo
flag from some packages and marked them as "to install" instead.

Automatic and silent change of my input is something which should never happen.

screenshot, testcase and logs are attached
