Zypper does not provide exact problem if package is required indirectly

Created attachment 867413 [details] Build log without direct asking for plasma5-workspace I tried to create ISO Live image in OBS. Since OSB Kiwi does not support file or other complex dependencies, much of them need to be added manually. These sometimes one by one can be resolved by analysing build logs, e.g.: Problem: the to be installed plasma5-session-5.24.4-bp154.2.3.1.noarch requires 'plasma5-workspace >= 5.24.4', but this requirement cannot be provided <...> not installable providers: plasma5-workspace-5.24.4-bp154.2.3.1.x86_64[177d10b3157df2d1838f5adc58e2075d] However only after requesting to add plasma5-workspace directly, in next build I can see: Problem: the to be installed plasma5-workspace-5.24.4-bp154.2.3.1.x86_64 requires 'libpipewire-0.3.so.0()(64bit)', but this requirement cannot be provided
Created attachment 867414 [details] Build log with direct asking for plasma5-workspace - explains libpipewire is missing
So zyyper at least should better provide more detailed cause of "this requirement cannot be provided" at one dependency level below.
Created attachment 867415 [details] "gstreamer-plugins-bad" indirect requirement - not sufficiently explained
Created attachment 867416 [details] "gstreamer-plugins-bad" direct requirement - sufficiently explained ('libvulkan.so.1()(64bit)' needed)
Created attachment 867417 [details] OBS log. Only after "kinfocenter5" direct adding explains: '(/usr/bin/vulkaninfo if libvulkan1)'
