Hi, I am attempting to remove old kernels from my system but "dnf erase <kernel-package>" wants to remove much more than just that kernel package. I wrote a bug at bugzilla.redhat.com but have gotten nowhere. This is the bug URL: 1761024 – removing old kernels wants to remove more than kernel packages
1761024 – removing old kernels wants to remove more than kernel packages I want to keep the oldest kernel and remove the "newer" kernels. I don't want to just use "rpm --nodeps -e". That has gotten me into trouble in the past. I think that confuses dnf and then things just go downhill from there. rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest starts producing error messages about dependencies missing. Here's a partial list of packages that dnf wants to remove: Removing dependent packages: ImageMagick-c++-devel x86_64 1:6.9.10.67-1.fc32 @rawhide 401 k ImageMagick-devel x86_64 1:6.9.10.67-1.fc32 @rawhide 499 k OpenEXR-devel x86_64 2.3.0-4.fc31 @rawhide 563 k alien noarch 8.95-11.fc31 @rawhide 218 k annobin x86_64 8.81-1.fc32 @rawhide 189 k arts-devel x86_64 8:1.5.10-44.fc31 @rawhide 1.5 M clang x86_64 9.0.0-1.fc32 @rawhide 1.6 M debhelper noarch 12.6.1-1.fc32 @rawhide 1.3 M dh-autoreconf noarch 19-6.fc31 @rawhide 19 k Any/all help/hints/tips/suggestions will be appreciated.
