No repositories are enabled (or exist) other than the two default ones.

What I'm not sure about is why packages such as "adwaita-icon-theme" or "gnome-online-accounts" are in the list of packages when I am running a minimal install with no desktop installed.
If I use the "--no-recommends" option, it doesn't attempt to install anything from that list I linked. Is there a way for me to find out what is asking for these to be installed where no desktop environment is installed? I don't think any patterns are enabled, when I do a "zypper patterns" nothing is checked on the leftmost column.
I rarely notice anyone here mention they install minimal, which is what I usually do on all my own hardware. Before using zypper or yast on first boot I make no-recommends the functional default by putting 'solver.onlyRequires = true' into /etc/zypp/zypp.conf. I wonder if the installer when minimal install is selected, and detailed selection is not used to add packages or patterns requiring Xorg, that it, in effect, turns on onlyRequires and/or no-recommends, but doesn't set either in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf or zypper.conf? If so, it could be the reason why you see zypper try to install all those new packages just by trying to use zypper at all? I normally add a few things in detailed package selection after initially selecting minimal, but it seems something always selects gnome-online-accounts, which I taboo, along with somewhere around 30 or more other things I'll never have use for. I think adwaita-icon-theme may be the GTK default, a basic requirement if any of SeaMonkey, Firefox or Thunderbird is to be installed. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
