Yes, I understand that Xchat is not directly dependent on bluez; It is being a victim of associative dependency, something like bluez <= gnome-bluetooth(libgnome-bluetooth-applet.so.0) <= gnome-shell <= libnotify.so.4 <= xchat My original question was if this is due to a packaging error or if yum's dependency resolving algorithm is at fault. Because with remove_leaf_only=1, if you try to remove individual packages, # yum remove bluez, # yum remove gnome-bluetooth # yum remove pulseaudio-module-bluetooth None of them work. But if you try to remove all 3 together # yum remove gnome-bluetooh bluez pulseaudio-module-bluetooth Yum prompts you to remove bluez -> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-October/190101.html --- Regards -Prasad http://feedmug.com -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
