inetd and dependencies

4 Nov 2001

      Hello,

I'm using xinetd (from source), but when I try to remove inetd rpm
yells at me:

% rpm -e inetd
error: removing these packages would break dependencies:
        inetd is needed by ftpd-0.3.2-51

xinetd is already running and has replaced inetd just fine. Can I just
forcefully remove inetd and it leave ftpd alone? Or is it going to
bust anything?
