Have dowloaded this package and found that from the 471 rpm packages I have 87 orpans. those are all lib's and looking into the information provided in the Gui I am at a loss if I need them and what the harm would be to remove them.
If I would remove those 87 lib packages from which I cannot guss if they would be needed by one of the programms I am using, would a zypper verify or zypper install-new-recommends repair the missing package?
Found on the web that version 1.8.1 is out. This openSUSE package is version 1.6. Is it still safe to use it? Any experience with rpmorphan.
Hi Brouerius, on my openSuSE 11.3 I've installed rpmorphan-1.8-0.pm.1.1.noarch from Packman and checked manually each package that was marked as orphaned with yast2-gui. Some of the found packages were compiled by myself, some were additionally installed but without dependencies and the most were really orphaned. You have to check them carefully.
