Problem here is dependencies (not with UI), reopened.

Is patterns-openSUSE-plasma5_basis missing?

the pattern is there, but it's uninstallable. it's impossible for me to see why on this screen

One could explicitly select patterns-openSUSE-plasma5_basis for installation and check the resolver error, or create and attach a solver-testcase. I can have a look at it then.

this is strange...
i have:

Base packages for the Plasma 5 desktop environment. Plasma 5 is the next major KDE's Workspace release.

The error says 'pattern:plasma5_basis-20140624' which would require '[package:]patterns-openSUSE-plasma5_basis-20140624', which could be a version downgrade. Please attach a solver testccase, so we can get the whole picture.

- Please create and attach a solver testcase:
    # zypper in --debug-solver nopackage
    ...
    Generating solver test case...
    Solver test case generated successfully at /var/log/zypper.solverTestCase.  
  Then pack the output directory together with 
  /var/log/zypper.log and attach it to the bugreport.

So it traces back to the fact that plasma5-desktop conflicts with kdebase4-workspace (which is installed).
That's probably no bug.

If you notice from the original image and description, this bug occurred during the initial install of openSUSE. One would presume that at that point nothing was, or should be, installed. The test cases were generated after the fact.

Well, then kdebase4-workspace had been selected to be installed. The result is the same: plasma5-desktop and kdebase4-workspace can not be installed together.

The (unreadable) conflict message suggests either 'do not install pattern:plasma5' or 'do not install pattern:kde'.

*** Bug 916807 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Steps on a 20150205 TW Net Install:

1) pick KDE desktop at initial selection
2) at Installation Summary > Software pick "Plasma 5 Base System"
3) resolver wants you to break kde-20150105
4) tell it ok to "do not install kde-..."
5) check boxes for KDE4 Base System and KDE 4 Desktop are unchecked
6) click OK
7) gives warning: "Cannot solve dependencies automatically. Manual intervention is required". Note: "KDE 4 Desktop Environment" is still listed as a pattern to be installed even though it was automatically deselected from the checkmark list.
8) go back into software and it tells you again that there is a conflict between Plasma 5 and the kde-20150105 basis. Tell it to not install the kde-20150105 basis and then it gives you a bunch of packages to select.
9) hit "Accept" on that windows and "continue" on the summary, and then the resolved will have the valid set of packages to install.

However, in the process, it no longer selects the multimedia, office, games, or imaging patterns as installing the KDE 4 patterns would normally pull in, resulting in a very bare desktop.

No KCM gtk (either version), no KCM touchpad (either version but might not be selected since on VM), KDM instead of SDDM (but it installs the SDDM openSUSE branding).

Wouldn't this bug be fixed now that Plasma 5 is the default option in TW and is working correctly for installing?

It should, yes. Please reopen if not true.
