The following packages will be REMOVED avahi-daemon* avahi-utils* gnome* libnss-mdns* telepathy-salut* The following packages will be upgraded: gnome-accessibility gnome-core gnome-desktop-environment gnome-office This is part of the problem. I used to be able to to exactly what you recommended, but as far as I can tell, alas no more. (I don't think I care about either telepathy-salut or libnss-mdns. I do care about gnome, although since it's a meta-package maybe I'm safe?) Out of interest, does this tell me that nothing depends on "gnome", and so therefore it's "safe" to remove? - apt-rdepends -r gnome Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done gnome Thanks, Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
