The pattern you can specify here is a full-blown regex (=regular
expression) one and NOT a wildcard style one you know maybe from e.g.
bash.
Thats a feature, not a bug and completely expected.
$ apt-get remove gnome*
will not only remove gnome and gnome-desktop but also libgnome0 (note that it
doesn't start with gnome) and gomint (note the "missing" e)
So myrtille should have written
$apt-get purge 2\.6\.28-11.*
(note the dot-escaping, otherwise 226A28-11 would be a match too…)
