Public bug reported: Binary package hint: aptitude
After upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 ubuntu, when I use aptitude for any operation, then it wants to remove many of my applications each time. This does not happen when I use synaptic. When I use apt-get then the situation is explained "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required". What is the problem: 1. I would expect aptitude to also just offer to remove this packages, not force it on me. To behave like apt-get 2. Why are so many applications selected? This are not just some libraries or something, this are applications that I use. 3. I thought upgrader (to 9.10) already removed unneeded stuff (for example "quiteinsane" was removed, since it is obsolite application - not maintained in debian) ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 Date: Sat Nov 7 15:24:58 2009 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: aptitude 0.4.11.11-1ubuntu6 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE= PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-14.48-generic SourcePackage: aptitude Uname: Linux 2.6.31-14-generic x86_64 ** Affects: aptitude (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug -- After upgrade to Ubuntu 9.10, many programs are marked for removal in aptitude (not in synpatic) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/477468 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
