surely

look how long is your list of "package-cleanup --leaves --all"
and how long is mine, i can uninstall anything which is
listed there because the metapackage requires things i
have installed and use

[root at rh:~]$ package-cleanup --leaves --all
Geladene Plugins: etckeeper, presto, protectbase

[root at rh:~]$ rpm -qa | wc -l
1334

discuss this with the rpmfusion maintainer
with the current dependencies *it does*
