Name : rpmorphan Product : Fedora 13 Version : 1.4 Release : 8.fc13 URL : http://rpmorphan.sourceforge.net Summary : List packages that have no dependencies (like deborphan) Description : rpmorphan finds "orphaned"[1] packages on your system. It determines which packages have no other packages depending on their installation, and shows you a list of these packages. It intends to be clone of deborphan Debian tools for rpm packages. It will try to help you to remove unused packages, for example: * after a distribution upgrade * when you want to suppress packages after some tests Several tools are also provided : * rpmusage - display rpm packages last use date * rpmdep - display the full dependency of an installed rpm package * rpmduplicates - find programs with several version installed Yum offers a program called 'package-cleanup' which you can use to carry out similar tasks. [1] Note that orphan is used in the sense of Debian's deborphan, and is NOT the same as Fedora orphaned packages which are packages that have no current maintainer. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Adds a missing dependency -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Dec 10 2010 Rahul Sundaram <[email protected]> - 1.4-8 - Fix missing perl module dependency for curses UI - Resolves rhbz#600136 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #600136 - rpmorphan should requires perl(Curses::UI) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=600136 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
