I don't remember. I suspect it may be only those
and Slowroll, but on all, there's
a suspicious recurrence of same package versions being reinstalled over and over
again on those two and Leap.

I don't know anything about "capability"
selection. My only suspicion about these
package reinstallations, a tenuous one, has to do with my TW and SR repo caches
being on bind mounts, not local, with rpm file ownerships not being 0:0.
Force installing the package changes nothing apparent:
# rpm -Uvh --force trinity-filesystem-14.1.3-1.osstw.noarch.rpm
