Hi:

Are all of the Dependency types listed here:

http://en.opensuse.org/Software_Management/Dependencies

Honoured by zypp ? especifically the "weak, conditional and reverse
dependencies" ? if so, what are the rules of the game? f.e Reccommends
is triggered on patches too, which is a quite unexpected behaviuor, a
"patch" in my understanding corrects an already installed package and
only pull new ones when they are stricly "Required".. ;-)


That's up to the creator of the patch. Why should libzypp restrict him?

Greetings, Stephan
