Hi list, On updating my server today, I noted that dnsmasq was updated, I do not recall installing this onto my server as it is running bind/named and dhcpd, thus why does it need dnsmasq? So I did a $> sudo yum remove dnsmasq to find out what rpm / yum thinks about it - I get a list of NetworkManager(-glib) removals evolution(-connector) removals krb5-auth-dialog also...... I think I can live without NetworkManager and evolution on this server, but why krb5-auth-dialog?? Any suggestions appreciated. TIA Rob

Some packages require it, for instance xen/libvirt.
$> sudo yum remove dnsmasq
This won't show you the dependencies. Use rpm -e --test.
