There would be broken deps in the transaction test, and the upgrade to the garbage-collector pkg would fail until the 3rd party repo adapts the orphan and updates it. In a similar way, not removing orphans results in brokens deps, too. Are mandatory "release notes", which contain a list of orphans and hints on how to clean up a system prior to a dist-upgrade, the way to go? -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
