Hi -
While the topic is raised--I installed adpkg a while ago, mistakenly
thinking it could come out cleanly if I wanted to remove it. I haven't
used deb2asc or asc2deb yet, and don't think I'm using anything else
provided by adpkg. I'd like to remove it for now, but as an 'Essential'
package dpkg/dselect doesn't want to let it go. I could
force-remove-essential it, but with it being tied so closely to dpkg, I
haven't wanted to risk that going wrong (not fully confident in my
prediction of dpkg's actions). Or I could purge it out manually. I
like to leave my dpkg and debian installation as clean and
uninterfered-with as possible, so I'm curious to hear what the group
knows before trying anything more.
Thanks all,
