 AutoinstSoftware.ycp 375:

        Packages::Init(true);
        string  base_selection = base;
        if (size(base_selection) > 0)
        {
            if (! Pkg::ResolvableInstall( base_selection, `selection ))
            {
                y2error("Error while setting base selection: %1",
base_selection);
                Report::Error(sformat(_("Could not set base selection:
%1"), base_selection));
                return false;
            }
        }

Looks like internally the default selection has some dependency problems...
(maybe)
Well, 400k are missing in the created packages file....
