rpmdrake is a very practical program, but it is somewhat limited to new package
installation and search by name or content. I'm not sure that newer or older
version of already installed package are also displayed. And query options are
somewhat limited in regard with those available with on-line command.

In fact, when i'm looking for packages to remove in order to gain free space, i
use rpm -query-by option, and sort the result by size. Or by the number
dependencies, and first i look at those whose presence isn't required by any
other. This could also be realised easily in a GUI such as rpmdrake, no ?
