I think you want to open a bug against patterns in general, that would be then openSUSE Release team. Otherwise Yast also handles some of hardware related detection and installation of related software (nvme etc...). Lubos On Wed, 2021-04-07 at 14:23 -0500, Larry Finger wrote:

It has always worked by the same mechanism described by Josef - modalias dependencies at package level. For example, the virtualbox-guest- tools package includes this line.

Ok, but what decides to automatically install virtualbox-guest- tools or any other?
How can one generate/verify that modalias?
I thought that it used to work, but now I am not sure. I created a new VM and installed Leap 15.1 on it. The kernel modules were installed, but not the necessary guest packages.
