kiwi has options to control whether to install other patterns recommended by a
pattern or only those required by the pattern. Likewise an option to control
installation of packages required or recommended by a pattern.
Also kiwi has the ability to ignore specified packages regardless of their
presence in the requested pattern (so that they are not installed).
Recently kiwi started to ask zypper to install patterns for it where kiwi used
to interpret patterns itself and just ask zypper to install a long list of
packages. This change caused kiwi to install a good deal more packages than it
does when using other package managers. Kiwi wants zypper to support these
features / options so that it doesn't have to interpret patterns itself but can
still result in the same package list.
If you need more info than that please ask Marcus.
