The Debian tool assumes that its users are capable of brain activity. I don't know if this is a problem in the Fedora case. Anyway, it does have a couple of more options than Y/n, one of them being 'i' which prints the description of the package, so it's easy to get a pretty good clue if you're uncertain whether you need the package. Of course this is where the "explicitly installed" attribute is useful. I assume glibc, grub, udev etc. are all explicitly installed by anaconda. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
