+This would also remove packages installed from third-party vendors,
+there are still some proprietary RPM packages out there.
+
+There is also this command:
+urpmi_rpm-find-leaves -g
+
+It finds unused library packages, or actually unused packages in the
+System/Libraries group. But there are quite a few false-positive
+results, because of packages incorrectly using System/Libraries as
+group.
