It was actually included in the tarball I sent in the original email, but: NetworkManager-libnm-1.0.6-6.fc23.x86_64 NetworkManager-1.0.6-6.fc23.x86_64 Yeah, I think NetworkManager is probably fine. It doesn't appear to be using any packages that aren't also used by many other projects. I need to figure out some better metrics for tracking this stuff down. NM definitely requires a lot of packages, but it seems obvious that the problem is deeper in the stack. Some package further back probably has a large number of dependencies. I just spent a little time tracing the dependency chain down and it looks like it's getting most of the chain from dbus->systemd->cryptsetup-libs->device-mapper-libs (at this point the dependencies hit a cycle with systemd...) The next largest dependency chain is with util-linux which appears to depend on a large number of small storage-related and low-level tools. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlZMgE4ACgkQeiVVYja6o6PvOgCdEEY/wo0tthiGsKEoGsiOiAnE JkMAn3Na9pXFEeGMU8dMl+3RHQlGe/pt =ff6V -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
