Let's see if I can redeem myself. Run rpm -qa and closely examine the output to look for packages that you think you don't need. Try to delete them using rpm -e. If the removal causes errors on packages that are dependancies then you need to recurse to see if you want to proceed. Actually, you should find a *lot* of stuff that you really don't need. If you use pine, do you really need elm? And mutt? Are you actually using ldap? Are you using postgres, mysql, amanda, joe, ruby, ... And the beauty is that if you delete them and then find you need them again, just put them back. -- -Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana.
