No luck though, vim-gnome doesn't show up :(
Nothing depends on vim-gnome, that's why it doesn't show up. The other vim packages only recommend it. To look for packages that don't have any reverse dependencies *and* aren't recommended by any installed packages try this: ~i(~R~i|~Rrecommends:~i)!~M You might want to add ~Rsuggests:~i too, like this: ~i(~R~i|~Rrecommends:~i|~Rsuggests:~i)!~M -- CJ van den Berg mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
