I see that 'tgt-generic' do that job.

1240         'tgt-generic' =>
1241             { name => ($distro eq 'SuSE') ? 'tgt': 'scsi-target-utils', parent => "tgt-generic",
1242             selected => 0, installed => 0, rpm_exist => 0, rpm_exist32 => 0,

So, stgt can be removed and only 'tgt-generic' should be in the list of @user_packages.
