        I have been trying to use rpm or dnf to remove some rpms. Most
    the ones I am concerned with are docker related, and or to do with go

    list generated with the date these rpms were installed, but I am not
    THAT good with CLI and bash operations like cut, xargs, sed and so
    on to
    alter the list; and I wouldn't be sure how to pipe the list
    contents or
    redirect to rpm the text's content from the ascii text file, to erase
    these particular rpms. Is there a way to mass erase many files
    (with rpm
    switches or such) using rpm? Here is an example of what I have been
    trying to do, ex:

         list.txt,


    gcc-devel // example,

    python-devel //example

    rpm -e // would this list content be redirectable to rpm -e ?

    cat list.txt

    lists rpms,

    rpm -e < cat list, or

    cat list | rpm -e

    do not work.
