What tactics would be recommended to start removing unneeded packages?
I have tried to graph dependences before and using hunches, is there a better way?

The package yum-utils has some utilities to manage that - package-cleanup for example can find duplicates or orphaned packages on your system.

Nice tool, but it always echos 'Loading "installonlyn" plugin'
Really annoying when package-cleanup --leaves --all -q | sort > /tmp/list

True - no idea why that also is being echoed on stdout.
