Hi,
doing an upgrade I encountered among others the following problem: I
so far used apt-get, but following the release notes I switched to
aptitude. But as a result much to much packages were installed:
Before the upgrade I did still with sarge sources an "aptitude
dist-upgrade" - with the result that nothing was to do.
But following the path described in the release notes many packages
were installed which I had purged on my sarge install: Especially an
number of meta-packages like kdemultimedia, gnome, gnome-office etc.
This wasn't a big problem (except that I now have to remove all that
stuff) but on my laptop I don't have much space left and have to
assure that no packages are installed that I don't want/need.
So my question: How can I - using aptitude - make sure that not all
those meta-packages etc. are drawn in?
Thanks a lot in advance!
