Thanx!
This is already on our radar, but we decided not to do it for 11.1 release. The
-d option is recognized by zypper, but has no effect currently.
You can achieve this currently by doing a dry run:
$ zypper in --dry-run -r x11-drivers '*'
But this will work only if the pacakges from x11-drivers have satisfied
dependencies on the target, unless you choose to ignore all eventual dependency
problems.
The --entire-catalog is achieved by '*', but it can be added to zypper for rug
compatibility.
--architecture switch is a good idea.
--------
The -d switch is covered in bug #384579, FATE #302159. I'll keep this report
for the --entire-catalog option, and make a TODO note for --architecture (and
--from-repo) switch (feel free to open a separate enhancement request for it).
--from-repo for selecting all packages from specified repo for installation
while keeping the other repos to satisfy dependencies.
Please, break similar reports into several separate reports in future.
