It depends on whether you actually use those packages or not. Obviously you wouldn't want to remove packages you're still actively using. You can find packages that aren't included in your currently-enabled set of repositories using: # yum list extras If you've just done an upgrade (and done a "yum update" to update any packages from extras and any third party repos you use), this will show you any now-obsolete packages plus any packages you installed from any other source. It can't distinguish between the two though - you'll need to do that yourself. Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
