If you attempt to remove a package which has dependencies, yum will
automatically flag all of its dependencies to be removed. Do you mean the
opposite -- if you remove a package, you want to also remove any packages
which were _only_ required by the package you've given?
Yes, Matthew, that is exactly what I mean, to remove any packages
which were _only_ required by the package.
