<PRE>Le 06/01/2012 16:13, Wolfgang Bornath a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> Ah, I see your reasoning, of course, if the packager forgot to name
</I>&gt;<i> the requires then urpmi declares them as orphans. But then, to be
</I>&gt;<i> safe, you have to forget about auto-orphans altogether because you can
</I>&gt;<i> not be sure that all packagers did their homework.
</I>Then you have to forget about using packages because you're not sure 
packagers did their work correctly.

So far, still no one proved than 'orphan' status was wrong regarding 
urpmi definition of what is an orphan package, rather than regarding 
their own personal expectation.
