That doesn't make sense though. That bug is just about dnf removing "unneeded" packages. The only reason the reporter lost a needed package was because something else was claiming to provide that dependency. This case is different. For some reason, dnf is removing a package that is required by many other still installed packages.

Samuel, see my previous reply I just sent regarding fallout going forward. I'm not sure what the heck is going on. As I previously mentioned, I was about to "dnf reinstall sqlite-libs" and then when I did a "dnf remove corebird" it didn't try to also delete sqlite-libs - so I was assuming it was something to do with the way the package was marked as referenced in the other bug report. That said, when I did a "dnf autoremove" command on two difference systems the list was different - even though the packages are currently installed on both systems - so something weird is happening. Also, I do have the libhif fix applied - and have had for several months, but just encountered this issue.
