Well according to the manual page clean_requirements_on_remove defaults 
to enabled, which means it will try and remove things that had been 
installed to satisfy the requirements of the other packages being removed.

So it's kind of like doing a combined remove followed by an autoremove 
with yum, except it possibly limits the autoremove to things which had 
been installed to satisfy requirements on the things being removed.
