Will create_package_descr still be able to make .sel files, or will it be completely removed?
create_package_descr has never created .sel or .pat files. create_package_descr is only "responsible" for the creation of the /suse/setup/descr/packages* files.
As far as I understand, I could just add OOo and then during installation will install all dependencies?
Yes. Thats one thing the resolver does (hopefully ;-).
What happens when I then want to deinstall OOo? Will it recognise the extra things it installed, or will that still be left behind?
Should be nearly the same as "rpm -e OOo"...
What about things I installed with rpm -Uvh?
No problem with that - it's the same behavior as bevore. This has nothing to do with patterns ;-) Lars
