I believe he is assuming that xchat has a direct relationship with bluez which,
I'm guessing here as I haven't checked, probably isn't the case.
Because bluez affects something that xchat depends on xchat is getting thrown
into the pile of things that will break without bluez. Dependencies aren't
always 1:1...
Yes, I understand that Xchat is not directly dependent on bluez; It is being a victim
of associative dependency, something like
bluez <= gnome-bluetooth(libgnome-bluetooth-applet.so.0) <= gnome-shell <=
libnotify.so.4 <= xchat
My original question was if this is due to a packaging error or if yum's dependency
resolving algorithm is at fault. Because with remove_leaf_only=1, if you try to remove
individual packages,
# yum remove bluez,
# yum remove gnome-bluetooth
# yum remove pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
None of them work. But if you try to remove all 3 together
# yum remove gnome-bluetooh bluez pulseaudio-module-bluetooth
Yum prompts you to remove bluez ->
