If you're using SuSE 8.1, use YaST to uninstall - it does dependency checking. That's how I now always remove RPMs. It's a bit annoying to use GnoRPM to install and YaST to uninstall but until YaST will use local files to install, that's what I have to do!
I'm using SuSE 8.1. But YaST does not uninstall packages that are not needed anymore. It just checks the dependencies I'm looking for a way to find RPMs that are not needed by any other RPM. Shouldn't the RPM database be able to perform this? Fabian
