Having an action which automatically removes all packages which were installed by invoking the "build-dep" action would be very useful. Most of the time I need to install some packages only to satisfy the build-dependencies of a package I want to build; I remove all those packages again right after the building process. Now if I miss to keep track of which packages were installed, I have to dig in /var/log/dpkg.log to get rid of them again. An action called "remove-build-dep" (or similar) could do all this. It could either be invoked with a source package’s name to only remove the build-dependencies of this package or without to remove all packages installed by "build-dep". Please consider adding such an action. - -- Package-specific info: - -- (no /etc/apt/preferences present) -- - -- (/etc/apt/sources.list present, but not submitted) -- - -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-k7 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to de_DE.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages apt depends on: ii debian-archive-keyring 2007.07.31 GnuPG archive keys of the Debian a ii libc6 2.6.1-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.2.2-3 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.2.2-3 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 apt recommends no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHKITxYfUFJ3ewsJgRAt9yAJ9wcHTWyxmk+jZUGNLqj5vIFMnYHgCfSizD 7ViMQ+d1xS9C3JZ9wPhFXOg= =CBbl -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
