So the intention is to get rid of some packages you've installed "for
experimentation purposes"?
In that case, you might want to ask for a list of packages which are not
marked as "auto-installed". This should only list the packages you've
exlicitly asked to install, so it should be a reasonably short list,
which you can then review manually to decide what to remove.
Sadly, I can't think off-hand of a command that will list the packages
that are installed and aren't marked "auto-installed".
Can anyone help?
