Just as when I tried to remove "Electronic Lab" - it is not expected that this operation should remove eclipse, fonts and screensavers, right? I am pretty sure I had fonts and screensavers before I installed "drawtiming" and "openocd".

Good point - I can remove NetworkManager and eclipse myself !! :-P My point is that "groupremove" doesn't do the right thing. If I installed eclipse using "Fedora Eclipse" then I don't want it automatically removed when I uninstall something unrelated because of complicated indirect dependencies. The same way I don't want to uninstall NetworkManager from the group "System Tools", when I try to remove the group "Dial-up Networking Support". -- 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
