No, not 'also'. Far from it. That display packages for which there is no repository and hence there can be no updates. 'rpmorphan" has an entirely different algorithm and display an entirely different set. It determines which packages have no other packages depending on their installation. Well, usually. It isn't quite infallible, I've found. And sometimes those 'terminal' nodes on the tree are actually programs that you want to keep. Feeding the *all* into "zypper rm" is a serious mistake. -- Power, money, persuasion, supplication, persecution -- these can lift at a colossal humbug--push it a little--weaken it a little over the course of a century; but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast.
