I can't find a similar cause, not even Build-Power conservation for the case of libkdegames4/kdegames4/kdegames4-carddecks.
I never said that my explanation was applicable for all packages. There are some that were build due to old spec-file restrictions, that are currently no longer applicable. However each package should be reviewed step by step, however with the move to GIT, all packages will be build as separate packages, so this issue would resolve itself in time. At the moment it is only applicable for those packages still in SVN.
Is kdegames4-carddecks the only one consumer of kdegames4?
What do you mean with consumer ? kdegames4 builds a number of rpm files which contains the separate games. However there is only one tarball for kdegames.
When one looks via zypper search kdegames it does looks like, and what of libkdegames4?
The rpm file libkdegames4 contains some central library required by most of the games build from the kdegames tarball. That is why it is packaged separately so that all games can be installed separately.
A better naming scheme for the dependants of kdegames4 (base) would be helpfull.
I don't see the point where a better naming scheme would be helpfull. From the kdegames tarball the packages rocs, bomber, bovo, kapman, kbattleship, etc are being build. What different naming scheme do you want to apply here ? the package kdegames4 is nothing but an empty shell (which will disappear in the future) and selecting that one will only result that all kde games packages are being selected at the moment.
