Actually this isn't happenig because rpm won't install suggests anymore, but because rpmbuild doesn't add any suggests to pkgs anymore.

Build task-xfce locally to test this. One in mirrors still has suggests, but locally build one doesn't have any. [wally@samsung-chroot task-xfce]$ urpmq --suggests task-xfce-minimal --suggests now displays the suggested packages, see --allow-suggests for previous behaviour lightdm canberra-gtk drakconf task-pulseaudio xfce4-power-manager [wally@samsung-chroot task-xfce]$ urpmq --suggests ./RPMS/noarch/task-xfce-minimal-4.10-3.1.mag4.noarch.rpm --suggests now displays the suggested packages, see --allow-suggests for previous behaviour [wally@samsung-chroot task-xfce]$

rpm-4.11.0 wasn't supposed to be pushed so early in core/release. I put it in core/udpates_testing but kamil uploaded it for some useless spec "cleaning"
Fixed by using the official Suse patch
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDResolution: (none) => FIXEDSummary: RPM does not install suggests anymore => RPM does not put suggests tags in rpms anymore
