Debian has this nifty feature of apt-get which is the option to 'autoclean' It has two purposes, first it removes files from the local repository which can no longer be downloaded and are useless. Second it removes packages that used to depend on a package which no longer exists. Example: I install claws-mail which depends on (among other things) libetpan11. Then I decide I don't like claws-mail and remove the package claws-mail. The next time I run autoclean (presuming that no other installed package depends on libetpan11) it will remove the package libetpan11 since it it no longer required by the system. Is there any similar functionality with yum/rpm?
Other than what Todd has already said, note that apt-rpm is available in Fedora. If you need it
