I am a little surprised by such an answer.
A user complains about openSUSE behaviour, I merely say that I've seen it, and *I* am in the wrong?
This is not Windows. It is Linux. It's my box; I'm the boss. If I uninstall something, even if it is something necessary, it should get uninstalled and stay uninstalled.
To behave otherwise is un-Unix-like, I submit.
To disable recommends in /etc/zypp/zyp*conf should take care of this scenario: zypp.conf: solver.onlyRequires = true zypper.conf: installRecommends = false -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science.
