(1) You can disable aptitude's desire to remove "unused" packages. (2) You can mark, with aptitude, the packages you "manually" installed with Synaptic (or apt-get) as being "manually" installed. You're not stuck but switching to and from aptitude is more work than switching between apt-get and Synaptic. (I took option (2) and now use only aptitude.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
