While I wouldn't blindly trust the output list of packages quite yet,
I wrote a simple script to help show packages that aren't getting a
lot of use (by default, no files accessed in 2 weeks) but there's
often stuff that you'll want to keep around.

As noted, there's better ways to do this, this was just something
quick and dirty to help me clean up a few systems. You'll want
to listen to rpm deps, etc. for not removing anything silly :)
