[Solved] Can't remove fam

Hi,

I had the same problem as this (fam would not start because of rpcbind). So I decided to replace fam with gamin.. But when I try removing fam with pacman -Rd fam, it fails the dependancy check and is not removed.

How do I remove it? Hints?

Thank you smile

Use -Rdd. And read the pacman manpage :-)

simply pacman -S gamin should replace fam with gamin.
