Description

imz 2001-12-09 00:30:44 MSK

rpm --nodeps -e doesn\'t ignore the dependencies, while 
rpm -e --nodeps does ignore them.

I observed this trying to remove openmotif-2.1.30-ipl7mdk; more exact: apt failed becuase it used the first bad order of options. (apt-0.3.19cnc53-alt5)

This is extremely bad because APT uses the bad order.

Fixing RPM is problematic.
APT will be fixed in apt &gt;= 0.3.19cnc53-alt6
