I asked the same question on #opensuse a week or so ago but got no
answer. The underlying question goes much further though:
Is it intentional that it is possible to have missing dependencies in
the published factory tree: When the system smart-updated directfb,
several other packages got removed as well. What was even better was a
while ago, when udev was split into udev + somelib, and somelib wasn't
published for one more week or so. So the core question is: Is it a
valid state, that packages in factory can be inconsistend?

Ciao

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
