I can't vouch for yum, but an apt remove of lcg-MON, just removes that
metapackage rpm and none of the dependencies. I have used the following
clumsy apt command to remove <metapackage> and its dependencies.
# apt-get remove `apt-cache depends <metapackage> |grep Depends| sed -e
s/\ \>.*// -e s/\ *Depends://|tr -d '\n'`
