</I>>><i> 'Twas brillig, and Robert Fox at 06/01/12 10:16 did gyre and gimble:
</I>>>><i> After latest Cauldron updates, I got a real long list of suggested
</I>>>><i> "orphans" - but I believe some of these packages are needed (like hal or
</I>>>><i> basesystem-minimal) -
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> How do I clear out the orphans - like reset the logic behind it so the
</I>>>><i> correct packages will be orphaned? Or is a fresh install in order??
</I>>><i> FWIW, as I see some people not liking this feature, personally I don't
</I>>><i> use --auto-orphans, but instead use "urpmq --not-available" to find
</I>>><i> packages I have installed that are no longer provided by the
</I>>><i> repositories. This will typically include old and unneeded library
</I>>><i> majors etc. that accumulate after a while.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> This list is much clearer in what it actually outputs and is basically
</I>>><i> the same as the yum orphan list command (I forget what the command
</I>>><i> actually is, but it's what inspired me to write the first version which
</I>>><i> in turn was vastly improved by a native implementation by (IIRC) Pascal
</I>>><i> Terjan :))

</I>>><i>
</I>>><i>
</I>><i> The problem is not 'I like it'/'I don't like it', the problem is that
</I>><i> this feature caused sometimes the loss of very important packages making
</I>><i> the system unusable and leading to a necessary reinstallation.
</I>rpm -e --nodeps also.
