I, of course, agree with the above general statement.
However, considering the specifics, I do have:
apt -s autoremove kmail
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
kde-standard kdepim kdepim-themeeditors kmail ktnef libkf5kmanagesieve5
libkf5ksieve-data libkf5ksieve5 libkf5ksieveui5 libkf5messagelist5 linux-
image-4.8.0-2-amd64 mythes-en-us
task-kde-desktop
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 13 to remove and 126 not upgraded.
Remv task-kde-desktop [3.39]
Remv kde-standard [5:92]
Remv kdepim [4:16.04.3-3]
Remv kdepim-themeeditors [4:16.04.3-3]
Remv kmail [4:16.04.3-3]
Remv ktnef [4:16.04.3-3]
Remv libkf5ksieveui5 [4:16.04.3-2+b2]
Remv libkf5kmanagesieve5 [4:16.04.3-2+b2]
Remv libkf5ksieve5 [4:16.04.3-2+b2]
Remv libkf5ksieve-data [4:16.04.3-2]
Remv libkf5messagelist5 [4:16.04.3-2]
Remv linux-image-4.8.0-2-amd64 [4.8.15-2]
Remv mythes-en-us [1:5.2.5-1]
===========================
However, one can notice something weired:
removal of kde-standard and task-kde-desktop...
And, yes, it might be that on a second run of it, I could have my entire
system removed...
There is something there, or so it seems.
Is it related to Kmail in any way?...
