I _did_ click the details button in the category I was removing packages
from. That is how I told it to uninstall 4 mozilla packages. I did
_not_ click the details in all categories and manually check that there
were missing check marks in everything I installed earlier - hardly a
friendly requirement to do so. The package installer selected three
additional packages to uninstall without notifying me - galeon,
openoffice and another whose identity I have not yet discovered. I _do_
blame the tool for doing this.
