Umm.. if it left all the "crap" in there there wouldn't be much sense in using rpm (or any package management) in the first place. Sure there will be *some* amount of manual cleaning necessary because of saved configuration files causing directories not getting removed and such but that depends on what changes you have done to the system etc - no single answer there. As for ~/.gnome etc stuff in your home directory: manual cleaning necessary, no package manager will touch your personal settings. - Panu
