I wonder where the insane dependencies are. IIRC, I installed the "kde" metapackage, which pulled in kvim and the kitchen sink. I can't remove kvim without some trouble. ->apt-get remove kvim Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: kde kdeaddons kvim vimpart 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 4 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get 0B of archives. ... ->apt-get remove vimpart Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree...

I did get rid of it once through some trickery, but it came back as a side effect of some subsequent action (probably an update), and I decided to leave it alone. I don't really remember all of this very clearly, but I seem to recall I had to hand edit one of apt's files in var to get rid of this thing without taking all of KDE with it. It got quite ugly. -- Michael McIntyre ---- Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/
