python - Does uninstalling a package with "pip" also remove the dependent packages?

Question

When you use pip to install a package, all the required packages will also be installed with it (dependencies). Does uninstalling that package also remove the dependent packages?

Answer 1

You can install and use the pip-autoremove utility to remove a package plus unused dependencies.

# install pip-autoremove
pip install pip-autoremove
# remove "somepackage" plus its dependencies:
pip-autoremove somepackage -y
