SuSE Version: 10.1
Greetings All!
I am currently testing a install image for SuSE 10.1. In the control file, I have the following entry to remove software packages:
<remove-packages config:type="list"> <package>kdegames3</package> <package>xmoto</package> <package>bsd-games</package> <package>freeciv</package> <package>frozen-bubble</package> <package>supertux</package> <package>knights</package> <package>enigma</package> <package>autofs</package> </remove-packages>
The install went fine, however, the packages that I want removed, were installed. I have the remove-packages section within the <software></software> tag. Anything else I am missing?
My best to you,

10.1 had a bug in the <remove-packages> section. There is a driverupdate on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/ug/autoyast that you can try but keep in mind, packages that are required(!) by a pattern can't be removed by autoyast. But the games should not be required in that way and so they should be removeable.
Uwe,
Thank you very much for your reply, very much appreciated!
Quick question: After I download the file (10.1_root_fix_v0.2), is there anything else I need to do to "enable" the driverupdate? This is what I have so far in the install directory. Thanks again Uwe!

you have to run the patch. It's a shell script and it will create a file "driverupdate". You don't need the 10.1_root_fix_v0.2 on the installation source. Just the created "driverupdate"
