Orphanded - as the resolver understands it - is a package without any update candiadate. You may say it's 'unmaintained'.
As orphaned package I referred to an "auto" leaf package. A "manual" leaf would of course not be orphan. If one reads the feature request in openFATE, orphan is also used there this way (it is perhaps wrongly used but essentially it means this, if I understand it correctly)
I think using 'orphan' is unfortunate and not correct here. See my comments in the FATE (and please reply there). But the main point here is that the 'auto-remove' feature is not done yet - it was marked as done by mistake.
I say, automatically installed leaf packages should be removeable automatically. I think this is what most people want. What is your opinion?
Fully agreed. I too look forward to the feature. Sorry for the noise caused by mistakingly closing it as done! I'll leave this report closed as fixed, since you wouldn't be filing it if the feature wasn't marked as done, right? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
