Kyalami Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Helloo, all! Brand new to the MCNLive forum, but not brandnew to the system. Glad to see the forum has been implemented! Too bad, though, that Chris has left us... Anyway, I'm using Pendrivelinux 2008 with persisten changes on a 4G iPod. I've installed lots of stuff, and now I only have like 50~40MB left. I want to remove apps, but their dependencies won't go away with them. Any ideas? Thanks! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg2 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 You can use rpm -q --requires <rpmname> to find a complete list of depends for an installed rpm. However, be very careful with what you remove from that list as other 'stuff ' may depend on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyalami Posted January 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Hello, all! THanks for the replies. I have tried Nexus' "auto orphans", and in Pendrivelinux 2008 (the remaster of MCNLive im working with) it didn't work; it wasnt' a vlid command. Now I will be using the terminal to fix this issue, but is there any graphical utility I can use? Maybe an updated edition of rpmdrake or something?

adamw Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 auto-orphans is a new feature of 2009, it won't be in anything based on an earlier release of Mandriva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
