If you try rpm -e tetex-fonts as an ordinary user, which has no rights
to remove packages, the rpm command will show you what it'd like to do,
or refuse to do, without actually making any changes.
]$ rpm -e tetex-fonts
error: Failed dependencies:
tetex-fonts is needed by (installed) a2ps-4.13b-65.fc7.i386
tetex-fonts = 3.0 is needed by (installed) tetex-3.0-40.3.fc7.i386
tetex-fonts = 3.0 is needed by (installed) tetex-dvips-3.0-40.3.fc7.i386
You can try similar tests with the dependencies, to work out if you can
remove them, or they remove other things that you want to keep.
