#
# Author:  Artem S. Tashkinov
# Created at:
#             Mon Nov 21 20:12:04 2016 - dnf, show deps, no clear
#             Wed Dec 13 19:43:00 2017 - remove by mask, skip already deleted, skip protected
#             Fri May 11 18:52:51 2018 - skip packages with errors instead of waithing for the user input
#                                            stop background dependancy checking
#                                            set env var SKIP to skip up to a certain package
