My main concern was that you could use that argument a lot (there are probably still more unpackaged libc using things than packaged). But I ran: repoquery --whatrequires '*-devel' | \ fgrep -v -- '-devel-' | \ fgrep -v -- '-static-' ...and there's a lot of stuff there, including a lot of the "small" languages (and perl-core, although that's not actually required by perl which seems like a bug). So this isn't unusual (bad spot for asking, instead of just doing it like everyone else ;). -- James Antill <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
