[opensuse] Leap 42.3 wants nvidia
I was just going to do a 'zypper dup' on a Leap 42.3 system, and zypper now reports this: The following 4 NEW packages are going to be installed: nvidia-computeG04 nvidia-gfxG04-kmp-default nvidia-glG04 x11-video-nvidiaG04 I do not have any nvidia stuff installed. Also, the nvidia RPMS are for an older Leap kernel. I guess some other package is pulling this in. But no other packages look like they should do this. Except perhaps VirtualBox, which is getting updated.

Strange. Not strange. These packages can only come from one repo, i.e. the nvidia repo. Have a look at 'zypper lr -d'

Strange.
The packages themseves contain criteria that gets them installed. I learned abou that possibility on the opensuse-factory mailing list, when DimStar wrote (Message-id: <1503390056.32051.6.camel@opensuse.org>): ---snip--- That is 'reverse' - actually nothing recommends lifecycle-data- openSUSE, but the package itself recommends its installation based on other packages being present: Supplements: packageand(openSUSE-release:zypper-lifecycle-plugin) so, as soon as openSUSE-release and zypper-lifecycle-plugin are being installed on the system, lifecycle-data-openSUSE is being marked as a recommended package. ---pins--- That is what works with the nvidia repo at <https://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/tumbleweed> also, as described in <20170809135610.ep2aab4ocqkfvbpo@suse.de> and the messages following this thread on opensuse-factory mailing list (starting 2017-08-09).
