What I meant is: Under the assumption that packages "yum" and "rpm" really have been erased, I don't understand why the yum remove command quoted above would do that on x86_64. flash-plugin : an optional leaf package, removing it doesn't pull out any core dependencies nspluginwrapper.x86_64 : same here nspluginwrapper.i686 : same here alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686 : should not pull out any x86_64 base pkgs libcurl.i686 : same here I don't see why any of the above packages would end up with Yum erasing also rpm.x86_64 and rpm-libs.x86_64 (plus other x86_64 base pkgs). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
