yeap, i tried this (i was actually referring to this in original mail)
.. and it tries do uninstall with all dependencies ..
i have done a list of duplicates with
yum check | awk '/is a duplicate/ {print $6}' > /tmp/DUPES
and i was planning to remove them with --nodeps --noscripts
what do you think? is this a solution that would avoid the dependencies
uninstall and would clean up the packages?
