That is not true. It still does exists.

So we have two cases how we look onto patterns in the QT-UI:

Case 1:The user select a pattern ( do not select for installation/deletion):

On the right side packages will be shown which has to ANYTHING with that
pattern.
This is an information what COULD belong e.g. to a webserver pattern only.
For that case we are using the PatternContent mechanism. HuHA is that
correct  ?

Case 2:The user install a pattern:
The user wants to see which packages will be definetely installed. In
that case
we make a complete solverrun. The result is completely independent from
Case 1.
So, some packages of Case 1 can be installed or not and other packages
which are
not part of the selected patterns can be installed too ( due dependecies ).

So, Katerina which kind of view do you need ?
