Package: dpkg Version: 1.18.2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I had a problem with removing some KDE packages, leading to remove gnome. After rejecting this bug from gnome package maintainer I tried to find more (ie, remove packages one by one) I had following issue (with apt-get output): apt-get remove libkdeui5 The following extra packages will be installed: libkdecore5 libkdesu5 libkjsapi4 libkjsembed4 libkntlm4 libkpty4 The following packages will be REMOVED: libkdeui5 libkwineffects1abi5 libnepomuk4 libnepomukcore4 libnepomukquery4a libnepomukutils4 liboktetagui4 libsendlater4 The following packages will be upgraded: libkdecore5 libkdesu5 libkjsapi4 libkjsembed4 libkntlm4 libkpty4 then I removed "be REMOVED" packages in reversed order manually without getting extra packages installed or upgraded. similar happen with: apt-get remove libgpgme++2 The following extra packages will be installed: libreoffice-base-drivers Suggested packages: libjtds-java libreoffice-mysql-connector libmyodbc libmysql-java libsqliteodbc tdsodbc mdbtools The following packages will be REMOVED: gnome libgpgme++2 libqgpgme1 libreoffice libreoffice-base libreoffice- emailmerge libreoffice-evolution libreoffice-help-en-us libreoffice-java-common libreoffice-officebean libreoffice-report-builder-bin libreoffice-sdbc-hsqldb openoffice.org openoffice.org-evolution openoffice.org-help-en-us The following packages will be upgraded: libreoffice-base-drivers removing libqgpgme1 before solved problem again.
