Actually, not that either. A closer examination of yum output reveals:

    removing basesystem-10.0-1.noarch. It is not required by anything else.

This is being tagged for removal by the remove-with-leaves plugin. So
I'm guessing that something in the dependency resolution stage calls
out for needing basesystem, but nothing else on my system technically
requires it. Should I consider that a bug?
