Expected results: removing totem-pl-parser through dnf should only uninstall the unused dependencies it depends on. Additional info: While testing in a container running: dnf install totem-pl-parser gdm dnf remove totem-pl-parser Causes dnf to stop as removing totem-pl-parser also attempts to uninstall systemd-udev: Error: Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: systemd-udev
