I don't think this is a bug. Python 2.7 is required software for both Gnome and Unity. Without it neither would be able to function. Since they are non-functional anyway, it makes some sense for apt to automatically remove them. I tried it on my virtual machine, and when you run `sudo apt-get remove python,` it does tell you that it's about to remove a metric ass-tonne of packages (including ubuntu-desktop and basically gnome-everything). That kind of output should warn most users that something isn't going according to plan, I'd think :S Hugo _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
