<div dir="ltr">One of the lesser known URLs that we have is the one with obsolete packages; packages that can be rebuilt and packages that can be removed. It's powered by Carsten's script.<div><br></div><div>Until today the output of the script was only a list of catalognames. I've spent some time today on making the output more comprehensive. Here's the result (for 5.10 intel):<br>

</div><div><br></div><div>What you see on the page, is a list of packages to be rebuilt. Next to each package, there is a list of its dependencies, with the obsolete dependencies highlighted in red. These are the ones we need to remove from the RUNTIME_DEPS list when rebuilding.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The list is grouped by maintainer name.</div><div><br></div><div>My suggestion is to look at them and rebuild, without rebuilding a newer version. Improving package dependencies alone is already helpful, and upgrades can be handled separately.</div>
