Hello all, I recently ran into a problem removing the "obsolete" passwd package on the 10.5 PPC fink. The package manager said there was a dependency, requiring me to use "remove --recursive." I tried to find a way to see what package was preventing the remove, but couldn't find one. Is there a way to see easily what packages depend on a given package? It's easy enough to go the other way, but I couldn't find a command to do what I wanted. I know that the information is in there, somewhere, since fink couldn't generate the error message otherwise. Does anyone know how to get that information?
One odd idea I just had would be to dump the dependency tree into a graphviz dot file and make a viewable pdf of the tree. :) Thanks, Sean P.S. I ended up just doing a recursive remove and let fink remove the package. The offending package was: emacs22-carbon 22.3-3 fink --version Package manager version: 0.34.5 Distribution version: selfupdate-rsync Sat Feb 2 18:19:38 2013, 10.5, powerpc Trees: local/main stable/main stable/crypto unstable/main unstable/crypto passwd 20130111-2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
