No it does not. It finds leaves, i.e. those RPMs that are not Required
by others. It is not the same as RPM not needed any more.
But this two-liners gives you RPMs no more in urpmi database:
{pts/0}% for i in $(rpm -qa);do
zcat /var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.* | grep -q $i || echo $i
done
it is a good start to remove unneeded things assuming your urpmi
database is current. Do additional grep for "^lib" to find out what
libraries has been "obsolete".
