OK, replying to the list, I was using FC to install sawfish and there was
failure, and it seemed that FC would do what it needed to install a program,
but it did not. So, given that this is still all new, and not understanding
why "db51-aes is not needed" but seems to be causing a problem . . . where
or how would I remove it? Meaning is this a "permanent" removal or am I
temporarily removing it while this sawfish install is going on?
