Guest thso Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Hello, I've been on man for about one week now; lots of file went criss cross in mcc. As a former Debian user, is there an autoremove in urmpi, and why not if there isn't? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Not sure what you mean, auto-remove for what? Explain what you're trying to achieve? Auto-removal of dependencies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thso Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Yes autoremoval of dependencies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamw Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 You mean orphans? No, there isn't, I don't think we're a fan of the idea, it's kinda complex and easy to break. But you can use urpmi_rpm-find-leaves to generate a list of them, and sort through it manually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I know an rpm distro that is a fan of this :) Red Hat, Fedora, amonst others also do the same. Yum has gotten better but it still doesn't clean everything. Likewise for aptitude in Debian/Ubuntu, but it's better than the rpm equivalents for doing this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
