Rephrasing the question might be helpful. What exactly do you want to have explained? Some packages are installed because they are needed by other packages. Some of them are added as requirements when installing Updates. You can run some RPM queries to examine the packages (not just the included files) and ask RPM about what requires them. -- 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
