[Solved] Pacman suggests that gnome-control-center could be removed?
Hi,
On my Gnome 3.2.1 Arch box, pacman -Qdt returns gnome-control-center 3.2.1-1...
It seems that this package (albeit it is not required by any other package on my box) has been installed as a dependency (that's pacman -Qi says...).
Furthermore, i suppose that removing it would make Gnome a little bit less usable...
Anyway, each time i remove "pending" packages listed by pacman -Qdt, i skip this one. But, i wonder if there is a reason why it appears in the list and why it is not marked as required by some gnome package.

just mark it as needed.
pacman -D --asexplicit gnome-control-center
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Thanks, Wonder...
On my "Arch Testing" Virtual box, i've noticed that this package was marked as explicitely installed... so my first idea was to remove it on my Arch Stable box to reinstall it but your solution is far simpler.
