DetailsCorrect me If I am wrong.. but shouldn't `pacman -Rs` check for unused dependencies?
I tried this with openssl and wpa_supplicant (checkout my attached log). I am not able to remove openssl via `pacman -R openssl`. But i can remove it with `pacman -Rs wpa_supplicant` According to zsh completions -Rs does: -s -- Remove dependencies not required by other packages > not required by other packages.. But according to pactree -r openssl it's required by python, curl, git, and many others..
