Description of problem: When trying to remove aiksaurus-gtk that was installed in the default install, PackageKit tells me it "cannot be remove, because something depends on it". Aside from the horrible grammar, PackageKit should be able to figure out the dependencies, since yum can. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.1.10 # yum remove aiksaurus-gtk Setting up Remove Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package aiksaurus-gtk.x86_64 1:1.2.1-15.fc6 set to be erased --> Processing Dependency: libAiksaurusGTK-1.2.so.0()(64bit) for package: abiword --> Running transaction check ---> Package abiword.x86_64 1:2.6.0-6.fc9 set to be erased --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Removing: aiksaurus-gtk x86_64 1:1.2.1-15.fc6 installed 85 k Removing for dependencies: abiword x86_64 1:2.6.0-6.fc9 installed 19 M Transaction Summary ============================================================================= Install 0 Package(s) Update 0 Package(s) Remove 2 Package(s) Is this ok [y/N]:

I've corrected the grammar in the backend in git, thanks. PackageKit can work out the deps on a package, but this appears to be broken in the backend. If GetRequires worked, than you would get UI "okay to remove additional packages". *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 439762 ***
