Maybe, yet I tried that earlier: % apt-get install nautilus { ...stuff deleted... } The following packages will be REMOVED: gtk2-engines-highcontrast swf-player sylpheed-claws-gtk2 { ...stuff deleted... } The following packages will be upgraded: gimp gimp-data gnome-accessibility-themes gnome-keyring gtk2-engines { ...stuff deleted... } 39 upgraded, 16 newly installed, 3 to remove and 272 not upgraded. Need to get 45.4MB of archives. I suppose that I could let it remove those three packages, then reinstall them later -- assuming that I can do that with 'apt-get'. But on my dialup connection 45.4MB takes about four hours and today I need that bandwidth for other jobs. Well, maybe in a few hours, tonight, or tomorrow...
