The way I usually do big cleaning up is a little risky (and long to apply), but may inspire you: I use the aptitude ncurses interface, go at package's root and mark everything as needing to be removed. Vital packages then ask to enter a loong phrase, which I do not so they'll stay installed. Then, I simple enable one by one packages which gave me features I need. As I said, it is risky, and I do not think I would like to use such a procedure on a computer which is not mine. The other solution, far easier, faster and safer, but which need a full re-installation, is to install debian, and when the installer asks you to select packages you want, to uncheck all boxes, including base system. Even without base system, you will have tools to install/remove packages, including aptitude. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
