The original intention was to at least ensure that you couldn't easily and accidentally put your system into a state where you couldn't put it back with the same tools you used to break it. (That is, don't let yum remove things yum needs to install stuff, basically.) I think there's use in extending it a *little* beyond that, but I also don't think we should go overboard. -- Matthew Miller <[email protected]> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
