that is general policy which doesn't really apply to mythtv: Libs are packaged in a forward compatible way so that if an application still needs libfoo-1.0.so.2.3 the next update with libfoo-1.1.so.4.5 doesn't break it. It leaves unused packages behind which you can identify with rpm -q --whatprovides shared-library-package You can also use package-cleanup with some options to identify and remove these packages. The libs with old sonames do not hurt other that taking away hdd space. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
