I'm managing a couple of remote VPS servers with no GUI access except putty. I have been using dselect to assist with this process & up to yesterday it worked well as it has for years. I did a apt-get distupgrade and all went as expected and the system is running fine. However after I did the upgrade from old stable to wheezy, I decided that I needed to get an upgraded openjdk-7-jre installed for the game systems I'm running. When I did that the dselect decided I needed a lot of extra stuff to go along and I hit 'ctrl x' to abandon those changes. I reloaded the selections available and went into get ONLY the jre that I needed using apt-get install & the entire load of X related stuff popped up. Now I have tried to clear the caches of dselect and apt but they all seem stuck. Running apt-get clean & autoclean do not clear the dselect picked dependencies.
Any ideas on how to get the dependencies & suggested selections cleared out. Thanks John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected] Archive: http://lists.debian.org/[email protected]
