Why does Tumbleweed insist on reinstalling YaST?

Following the announcement of the demise of YaST, I adapted my tumbleweed installation to the new setup by installing Myrlyn and Cockpit, and removing YaST:

sudo zypper rm -u yast*

However it’s already been a couple of times that when I zypper dup several yast packages get pulled in for installation.

Is this how it’s supposed to be? Or can I prevent this behaviour?

Thanks!

Until opensuse remove it from their patterns, it will keep coming back. That’s the way opensuse works.

Same as if you try to remove a KDE package, the KDE pattern will keep reinstalling it when you update.

You can lock/blacklist individual packages though. I can’t remember how but it will be in their documentation.

You can also blacklist packages directly from Myrlyn
