Re: Removing lvm2 takes away too much

[Javier Perez <pepebuho@xxxxxxxxx>]

Made the test.

If I try to install cockpit, it tries to pull lvm2 along the ride

If I try to install docker, it is ok, it does not try to pull lvm2 along for the ride.

Already added a bug report to bugzilla about it.

Interestingly, cockpit also tries to bring docker along

Shouldn't be needed again, post install.  Don't know about the others,
and like you mention, it depends if you use them.

You could try going through the motions of installing one of them, but
aborting before it actually starts, and see what else it wants to
download to install along with them.

Long ago I gave up on using Windows (TM) [Tantrum Machine], and I've
never regretted it.
