Anaconda is the installer. To be honest, I've never understood why

It's not involved with system maintenance past the initial
installation? I had the impression it was intimately involved with the
system's overall configuration including updates. But, I must admit
that it's not something I have dug into in any serious way. Thanks for
the suggestion. I'll keep this option in mind. This is good to know.
I don't have anaconda installed on any RHEL or RHEL clone system - and
never have.
So I erased it with this fascinating transaction report excerpt:

That smells amusing and puzzling but not dangerous to me.
Thanks for the information.
