Add support to installp to remove dependencies when fed multiple packages/filesets to remove #7138

Open ikeusmaximus opened 1 year ago

ikeusmaximus commented 1 year ago

Summary

Add support to installp to remove dependencies when fed multiple packages/filesets to remove. Certain packages (Centrify/Delinea for example) have a lot of dependencies between each other, therefore when removing, the command required is:

installp -ug <string of packages to remove>

The "-g" is what is required. Current functionality tries to remove each package separately. Perhaps an additional module parameter remove_deps: true| default(false) or something?
