Try "apt-get remove bash" or "apt-get remove dpkg" and agree with the scary warning and see what works thereafter (no, don't do it for real). You will notice, you just broke your system badly without any safety net. The definition of an essential package is "do not remove it". If you still do, it's your business to deal with the situation. Same for these modules - however, I agree that we need to communicate this more prominently (again, see #709461). -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D
