hey,

I've been going through the rpmdrake [9.2] uninstallation window and saw I had libgphoto installed. I dont have a digital camera now and wont for a while.
Point is, I want to uninstall it, but it said that there many dependencies, among them are Open office [ 1.1-0.rc4.2mdk] and kdevelop.
Wondering why does libgphoto need sooo many frickin dependencies ?!?!?!??!?
Can i remove libgphoto without taking OO and much more with it ??

Thanks,
keyshawn

Try in a console as root:

rpm -e --nodeps libgphoto-<<whatever>>

(You'll need the full name of libgphoto to do that and you can use rpm -qa | grep libgphoto to find out what that is)
You may lose some functionality of some of those deps, but some you probably won't even notice it missing.
