Comment # 3 on bug 970859 from Dr. Werner Fink

(In reply to Sebastian Wagner from comment #1)

Ahmm ... please *use* collections and schemes here.  There are more then 4000
packages around and to use a bottom up dependency tree simply does not work due
to the missed branches due to the unknown usecases.  There the top down
dependency tree with the starting collections and schemes exists, as you may
see with

  zypper search texlive-collection texlive-scheme

here you can choose the appropioate collection(s) and/or scheme(s) for *your*
personal use case.
