Dear Yum Team, I've been promoting the use of Yum here for managing our Fedora 3-6 and RHEL 4 systems for several months now, and we've had some issues that we've worked around, but NOW there seems to be a big complaint about Yum doing one of it's basic tasks with what certainly seems to be irrational design. An administrator was removing the Hal daemon package(s) and Yum decided it needed to remove 182 packages. I mean.. really! This was on a RHEL 4 (update 3) system, with an "Everything" install (originally) The yum command was: "yum remove hal hal-devel" The Yum dependency resolution determined that the removal of 182 RPMs was necessary - as seen below. Our admin killed the process before Yum butchered too much of the system's packages. How in the world can this list be valid? kernel-utils? anaconda? firefox? system-config-* ? Please explain/help? Thanks, Wayne <snip> ======================================================================== ===== Package Arch Version Repository Size
