Why aptitude wants to remove zenity and xserver-xephyr?

2009-11-20 Thread Javier Barroso
I would like to guess why aptitude removed my zenity and
xserver-xephyr when I only want to remove hplip-gui. In its output
appear {u} , I think it means because of a upgrade

One question OT: Is better paste here inline (in the mail), or better
put a link to paste.debian.net ?

Thanks!

No, it means unused, i.e. these packages were automatically installed,
and no manually installed packages depend on (or recommend) them
anymore.

If you don't like this behavior, you can turn off the automatic deletion
of unused packages.  Start the aptitude TUI and uncheck the box under
Options - Preferences - Remove unused packages automatically.

Unless the output is very large, I strongly prefer pasting it inline,
because it makes reading and replying much easier.  Some of us read even
read their mail offline, which makes having to go to a website even more
inconvenient.

Or, if you just want to tell aptitude that you don't want it to
auto-remove a certain package:

aptitude unmarkauto zenity

Thanks both

Ok, The cause was that I removed gdm, and then xserver-xephyr and
zenity wasn't need any more ...

I'd sure like to find the documentation on those flags!
