Something I would like to see in the "base" pattern is tools to install new software and with that I don't only mean rpm but a way to use a network source for installation and update perhaps zypper?
As written before, I'd see such tools as convenience applications.
Maybe we should define the purpose and application of such a 'base' pattern first. Is it for 1. installing a really minimal but somewhat usable system via CD/DVD ? 2. running a (Xen) virtual guest ? 3. running a chroot environment ?
For 1., a minimal YaST or zypper would be essential, I agree.
installed size of libzypp + zypper is cca 7.2 MB
For 2. or 3. a bash prompt would probably be sufficient (plus a way to install the application you want to run virtualized.)
