Hi, thanks for your answers! The zypper option "--no-recommends" doesn't helped much, because most of the dependencies were forced packages (only a few were recommended). But it gave my the idea to install it without zypper but instead using rpm directly: rpm -i apparmor-utils-2.9.1-4.1.noarch.rpm
Now everything seems to be fine and the yast- and aa-tools are working as expected without hundreds of unneccessary packages. So I also guess it is a Suse-specific problem or bug (not the first one)... ;-) Regards, Sascha Am 14.10.2015 um 19:42 schrieb Christian Boltz: > Hello, > > Am Mittwoch, 14.
