Well yum deplist will produce the entire forest which you have to then eyeball and find packages with no deplist. Another way to do it is for pkg in `rpm -qa`; do deplist=`rpm -qR $pkg 2>/dev/null` [ "x$deplist" = "x" ] && echo Root pkg: $pkg done The only root or leaf packages listed from the above script: Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-a3780952-4affed06 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-98ab5139-4bf2d0b0 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-2425b284-4affedb7 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-e8e40fde-4b563cdc Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-66534c2b-4b3fa247 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-d22e77f2-49750871 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-7fac5991-4615767f Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-a3a882c1-4a1009ef Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-0ec4fe05-42038150 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-8fcff4da-49c51006 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-97a1071f-4c49d6fe Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-16ca1a56-4a100959 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-f6777c67-45e5b1b9 Root pkg: gpg-pubkey-57bbccba-4a6f97af -- 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
