Comment 3 Jeff Johnson 2004-08-13 17:54:28 UTC 
From the CLI, rpm orders erasures by reversing the partial order
of the install. That is not an unreasonable choice, nor is it
clear that there is a better algorithm.

There has never been any attempt to insure that massive
erasures "work" correctly. Defferred until somewhen ...
Comment 4 Alex Lyashkov 2004-08-13 18:22:01 UTC 
How i see rpm not add any reference from programs called from scripts
to packages who have it. Without it reference me have bad order to errase.
