[Bug 692791] Re: Lots of Evolution packages are left behind after uninstallation and some are removed without a clear rationale

2011-09-19 Thread Matthew Paul Thomas
Evolution is not installed by default in 11.10, so I don't see how this can be blamed on bug #424643. But I also don't see how this can be blamed on Ubuntu Software Center. Even if I use apt-get, installing evolution also installs evolution-common, evolution-plugins, evolution- webcal, and

Fire, I ran a few checks to try and work out exactly which package it is that's triggering the massed removal of your Ubuntu Desktop if you try and remove certain evolution packages, but... the reason for it (that I found in the past) is that Evolution, which is the official Gnome Groupware Suite,

It's related, though I'm pretty certain that it's not just evolution- common that's the subject of this particular report. When browsing USC for 'evolution', I notice a lot of installed packages that are a part of evolution. evolution-data-server, libebook, libdataserver are just a few. It seems

It might actually be worth marking bug #553733 as a duplicate of this since evolution-common is only a part of the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/692791 Title: Lots of

libebook and libedataserver are shared libraries and are needed for other things too (try purging them) though evolution-data-server should be removed(there might be other reasons for that too). In either case a bug report in debian bug tracker would be more helpful I think. -- You received this

The package manager will be able to deal with this correctly; that is, once other packages requiring evolution shared libs are also removed (then it should show up as no longer needed and removable with e.g. apt- get autoremove). Gnome-panel, for example, is one of the packages which require

Thanks for your bugreport. The package manager (apt-get, aptitude, USC) is able to deal with the situation via the auto-installed information. This was pointed out by Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre already. But because of bug #424643 this auto-installed information is not properly written for the default
