apt-get install mc Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: task-gnome-desktop task-gnome-apps gmc task-gnome-net task-gnome-wm The following NEW packages will be installed: mc 0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 5 to remove and 1 not upgraded. Need to get 455kB of archives. After unpacking 1522kB will be freed. Do you want to continue? [Y/n] n I also get rid of the gnome stuff (and it looks like all of the gnome stuff) that I installed. This is a cool thing. is there anything wrong with killing two birds with one stone this way? -- -tf
