Allowing users to select packages for installation without having registered the product seems like your creating a situation in which the installation process itself will become over-complicated and confusing. I would seriously think about registering the product before the installation overview.

Well, zypper allows to do that (searching without being registered). But it is a different case, as zypper won't let you to register anyway. I am not sure whether it is a hard-requirement (to be on par with zypper). If "just searching" is a use case, I guess we need to support it. Jiri or Lukas, any comment about this?

I am not sure whether I have clarified something :)

Yeah, this whole thing is so complex! It’s very hard to understand what is best for the user vs what would be best for the developer/system.

Yes, you are right. From the developers point of view, we already have done the hardest part :) It is a matter simplifying/adjusting the workflow as much as possible to make things easier to use and maintain. But it is not easy to find the balance. Thanks. Regards, Imo -- Imobach González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE LLC https://imobachgs.github.io/
