Hi All,

I am wondering how to completely display the contents of a pattern.
On SLE 12 for example 'zypper pattern-info base' used to display all 
dependent packages, where SLE 15 does ony list the included 'meta' packages:

# zypper pattern-info base
Refreshing service 'SMT-http_x'.
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...


Information for pattern base:
-----------------------------
Repository      : SLE-Module-Basesystem15-Pool

Summary         : Base System                     
Description     :                                 
    This is the base runtime system.  It contains only a minimal multiuser booting system. For running on real hardware, you need to add additional packages and pattern to make this pattern
    useful on its own.

    i  | shim                             | package | Recommended
    i  | systemd-sysvinit                 | package | Recommended

So how to display the full list - or how to at least resolve the packages pulled 
by the 'meta' package like 'patterns-base-base' for example?

Thank you,
