Hello
I recently installed gnome-commander. Because gnome-commander needs 'meld', 'exiv2-libs', 'gnome-vfs2-smb' these were also installed.
Today I removed gnome-commander with 'yum remove' but yum did not include (or even suggest) meld, exiv2libs and gnome-vfs2-smb for removal. Why?
I use meld all the time as a substitute fro diff. It is noway only useful in conjunction with gnome commander.
These packages were exclusively associated with gnome-commander. No other app needs them!
I know yum builds on rpm and rpm itself is not so versatile with respect to removal but shouldn't yum(rpm) include some more stringent 'removal-options' (including removing the gnome-commander created directory ".gnome-commander" in the home folder).
apt/synaptic seems to include a 'complete removal' option.
