I have an intel GPU, but it didn't prevent the Xorg packages for radeon andunichrome to get automatically installed (suggested packages?). It would be convenient to have a way to select or taboo packages by feature orhardware availability. It could look like a metapackage or an option that couldbe selected, like: "Bluetooth -> Never install" "Graphics driver - Intel -> Selected" "Graphics driver - Radeon -> Never install" -   -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306596

While a radeon display driver residing on my harddisk does not hinder my system. -1 + #2: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) (2009-08-11 15:16:56) + We have already the means for this that you can mark packages dependend + on specific pci IDs and similar features.
