Not the same pinning. I'm talking about adding a bit that would
tell
whether a particular package was requested by the user or brought in
just to satisfy a dependency of another package. Packages of the
latter group that no longer have any dependency in the database may be
garbage collected. Packages of the former group shouldn't.
Right but the problem is this.
sometimes, when I know a dep a package needs i'll request it too.
so instead of:
yum install rdiff-backup
I'll run:
yum install rdiff-backup librsync
So, I've requested it - but only b/c I know it's a dep.
