Hi, I was trying to remove samba-winbind (plus the rest of samba, because I don't need it and samba represents MBs of updates and tens of MB of used space) from my F-10 machine and found out that it will remove nautilus too. Removing: samba-winbind i386 3.2.5-0.23.fc10 installed 7.9 M Removing for dependencies: gnome-vfs2-smb i386 2.24.0-3.fc10 installed 28 k gvfs-smb i386 1.0.2-3.fc10 installed 255 k hal-cups-utils i386 0.6.17-4.fc10 installed 100 k libsmbclient i386 3.2.5-0.23.fc10 installed 3.8 M nautilus i386 2.24.1-3.fc10 installed 13 M samba-client i386 3.2.5-0.23.fc10 installed 27 M samba-common i386 3.2.5-0.23.fc10 installed 29 M system-config-printer i386 1.0.9-1.fc10 installed 1.6 M system-config-printer-libs i386 1.0.9-1.fc10 installed 2.8 M The problem is that nautilus has hard dependencies on many (all?) gvfs modules. Trying to remove libgphoto2 has similar effects. So my proposal is to split nautilus into nautilus-core, that will contains the content of the current nautilus package, and nautilus "meta" package that will contains all the dependencies plus dependency on nautilus-core. This solution will install all the deps as today, but leave the option to remove the unnecessary packages afterwards. Only 3 packages will be affected with this split nautilus-devel nautilus-python seahorse-plugins and they should be made to depend on nautilus-core instead of nautilus. I will file a bug with the proposed change to nautilus spec file. Dan -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
