I don't think that's quite true. If you tell yum to remove a package, it'll remove that package and any package that requires it. It doesn't descend the dependency tree in the opposite direction (normally, I believe there's a plugin that'll do that), and in no case will it ever do something inconsistent like removing a package which is required by something that yum leaves installed. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
