RedHat Rhel packages uninstallation logs
Hi

I need to uninstall some packages in RHEL 6 using rpm -e command. But there are some dependencies preventing them to uninstall.

I want to see the log files of all the uninstall and installation. Can anyone tell me where it is located?

Thanks in advance.

Would you be better working with yum tools? They manage (and report) the dependencies very nicely.

Can you share the command you are entering and the errors return, in CODE tags, please.



Thanks, in advance,
Robin

The log file lives at /var/log/yum.log

Uninstalling packages is done with yum in RHEL 6.x
Code:
# yum remove samba

thanks for the reply. I don't need the yum log. All I want to see the logs of those install nad uninstall files which were proceed through rpm command.

Actually I do want to check the Log that contains all the information about dependencies while trying to uninstall a package. Though I can see in terminal but just want to know where the log is created. Thanks
