Removing bash would obviously lead to catastrophic consequences.
yum remove or yum erase are safe in my opinion. I also use
"clean_requirements_on_remove".
"The clean_requirements_on_remove configuration changes the behaviour of this

Here is the difference. yum remove won't remove dependencies unless you use
something like clean_requirements_on_remove or remove_leaf_only.
OK.
