I send in a drop request for the kiwi package some time ago which was put back to the backlog because the dist people still need time to switch to the new product-builder which was done by kiwi before Thus once the kiwi package and its sub-packages kiwi-tools, kiwi-pxeboot are gone the problem reported here is solved. Except from the suse internal product builder reference there is nothing which should hold us back to get rid of kiwi in Factory, 42.3 and beyond
