I installed xfce using yast2 and selecting the xfce pattern from left, then I changed to KDE, uninstalled all xfce, now I want to re-install it again, I select from left the xfce pattern but this time Yast2 don't mark all the package to be installed, only mark the meta package patterns-openSUSE-xfce no one else.

The same trying to re-install lamp server.

Only happens with patterns uninstalled no with new patterns to install.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install a pattern.
2.uninstall it.
3.try to install the same pattern again.
Actual Results:  
yast2 doesn't mark all package to install this time.

Expected Results:  
all package marked o be installed again

Tomas: What does the pkg-selector do when deselecting the pattern? 

May it be it manually deselects packages in the list? Sounds like all the recommended packages in the list get soft-locked when deselecting the pattern. Re-selecting the pattern they will not be selected again (soft-locked == considered being unwanted).

It sets its Status to S_NoInst.
