== Avoid installation of packages I don't need

OpenSUSE comes with a number of packages that I don't need.
Apart from that, I really love this operating system.

2024-03-23: the kde_pim pattern is definitely a pattern I don't
need.
On my Thumbleweed, after a distribution upgrade, I'll try to
add a lock: this should prevent the pattern to be re-installed on
the next dist upgrade.

 # zypper dup       # reboot is probably needed
 # zypper rm --clean-deps -t pattern kde_pim
 # zypper al -t pattern kde_pim
