+Maybe at mdk9.1 it had problems. Tho' i'm not sure if urpmi even had that option at that 
+time. For me orphans are always worked. There is one thing that can cause problems - task 
+(meta) packages. For example if you remove task-kde4 then yes, you get a lot of kde packages 
+that are marked as orphans as task-kde4 pulled them in and is now uninstalled. But if some 
+package has requires on other package then this other package isn't marked as orphan.
