Bug ID: 983979
           Summary: yum doesn't remove no longer needed packages with
                    langpacks
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 19
         Component: yum-langpacks
          Severity: low
          Priority: unspecified
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
        QA Contact: [e-mail]
                CC: [e-mail],

Description of problem:
yum doesn't remove packages with langpacks that no longer needed by any other
package.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.3.1-2.fc19

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install any package with deps that have langpacks (e. g. libreoffice-writer
has mythes dependency with mythes-%s langpacks)
2. Remove this package

Actual results:
Dependencies with langpacks won't be erased

Expected results:
All leftover dependencies should be erased

Additional info:
For example: if I install libreoffice-writer it pulls mythes and language packs
mythes-en, mythes-ru. If I delete libreoffice-writer package mythes won't be
erased.
As I understand it happens because packages mythes-ru, mythes-en installs "by
user" and have mythes dependency.

What's your yum config - do you have clean_requirements_on_remove set?

James, Zdenek - is there something specific that yum-langpacks can do to mark
the packages it installs so that this works?

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning

Clean requirements from langpack install.

I believe this will fix it.

Yes, that works, but "yum autoremove" will delete all langpacks because they're
marked installed as dependencies (but no package depends on them).

--- Comment #11 from Fedora End Of Life  ---
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

--- Comment #12 from Fedora End Of Life  ---
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
