I created for virtualbox-ose package three new subpackages : python-virtualbox-ose,virtualbox-ose-devel and virtualbox-ose-qt see bug report from Vincent: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=636858 - so now if you want to use vboxgtk (GUI interface written in python+GTK) you don't have to install qt dependent part (use zypper addlock virtualbox-ose-qt in this case) as I don't want to confuse users,and I suppose they expect QT interface after installation of virtualbox-ose package, so as a dependency between virtualbox-ose and virtualbox-ose-qt I used "Recommends" keyword (this should handle also update from 11.3 to 11.4): Name: virtualbox-ose ... Recommends: %{name}-qt = %version ... So by default virtualbox-ose installation will trigger also installation of virtualbox-ose-qt .... If someone comes with better idea how to split qt subpackage without confusing users I would be glad :)
Don't we have "split-provides" for this case? See: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Upgrade_dependencies_explanation#Splitting_a...
