Maybe there is a configuration setting that tells aptitude not to remove unused packages automatically. (This is configurable and I am not sure what the default setting is.) The easiest way to check this is probably to start aptitude in interactive mode, press CTRL + T to activate the menu, go to "Options", "Dependency handling" and verify that the item "Remove unused packages automatically" is selected. -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
