dnf autoremove might do the trick. I'm on Fedora Silverblue, so thankfully don't have to worry about this anymore.
Have used this recently on F40 Workstation and can attest that it works as described.
No-one is suggesting that it doesn't work as described, but depends on dependency chain removal. This isn't always the case.
Anyway, I found the package I partly remembered!
ah right, glad to hear.
Thank-you. Hopefully it helps a few here. I updated to the beta f41 just now, faultless - I haven't done an update to beta for some time. Only a couple Gnome Extensions don't work but that's expected.
There was only one rpmnew/rpmsav set: on cups browser. Nothing interesting. I think I may have forgotten to update one before.
I was expecting xorg to be removed by the remove packages thing, but it didn't. Maybe next time. I think I'm very 'previous'!
No, these packages are in the dependencies list of other packages so auto remove isn't the solution.
The more I think about it, the more I am convinced that there's an official package to 'install' which will remove technologies no longer current.
