By default yum does not automatically remove dependencies. Have a look at the clean_requirements_on_remove option in yum.conf(5). The "yum autoremove" command can also be used to remove unused packages which were previously installed as dependencies for another package.

Sorry, but this logic i dont understand. why ido and docs has been erased? And the meaning of a metapackage (as is defined icinga2) should be bundle all subpackages to once when installing and removing, isn't?
