No. The loop used to break on multiarch systems because deborphan did not produce multiarch-aware content until recently. Even then, this only affects Ubuntu's Precise release. No other Debian or Ubuntu release is affected. > You could replace the whole loop with "apt-get remove `deborphan > --recursive`". This is a nice new feature, but it's not backportable, hence why I'll stick with my own loops for now. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
