because it believes you need them based either on the packages in question being updated or having modified depends. if you did apt-get install at the instant you did remove I would expect to see the same results. If you just want to remove things, use dpkg. In fact use dpkg --purge. apt really should be thought of as a really smart wget. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
