Many, if not all of the packages depending on the avahi package do not need the avahi-daemon. So what's the problem here? + dependencies broken because packages not needing a package depend on it + bad packaging + the package management not supporting suggestions + the installer not giving users choices about what to install + something else + all of the above? -- Fedora release 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat) -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
