Public bug reported: Lubuntu 14.04.4, new install: . 1. I manually and individually removed abiword, gnumeric, mtpaint, pidgin and audacious. E.g., "sudo apt-get remove abiword", etc.
2. In a new session, subsequent use of apt-get displays this "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: abiword-common apturl apturl-common evolution-data-server-common gecko-mediaplayer gnome-mplayer gnumeric-common gstreamer0.10-nice gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-faad gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad-videoparsers language-selector-gnome libaa1 libabiword-3.0 libaudclient2 libavc1394-0 libavresample1 libbluray1 libcamel-1.2-45 libchamplain-0.12-0 libchamplain-gtk-0.12-0 libchromaprint0 libclutter-1.0-0 libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 libcogl-pango15 libcogl15 libdiscid0 libdv4 libebook-contacts-1.2-0 libedataserver-1.2-18 libfarstream-0.1-0 libfs6 libgbm1 libgda-5.0-4 libgda-5.0-common libglu1-mesa libgmlib1 libgmtk1 libgmtk1-data libgoffice-0.10-10 libgoffice-0.10-10-common libgpod4 libgsf-1-114 libgsf-1-common libgssdp-1.0-3 libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0 libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0 libgtkglext1 libguess1 libgupnp-1.0-4 libgupnp-igd-1.0-4 libical1 libiec61883-0 libilmbase6 libjs-jquery libloudmouth1-0 liblua5.2-0 libmeanwhile1 libmowgli2 libmusicbrainz3-6 libnice10 libntdb1 libopencv-calib3d2.4 libopencv-contrib2.4 libopencv-core2.4 libopencv-features2d2.4 libopencv-flann2.4 libopencv-highgui2.4 libopencv-imgproc2.4 libopencv-legacy2.4 libopencv-ml2.4 libopencv-objdetect2.4 libopencv-video2.4 libopenexr6 libots0 libperl5.18 libpostproc52 libpurple0 libquvi-scripts libquvi7 libsbc1 libshout3 libsrtp0 libtag1-vanilla libtag1c2a libtbb2 libtelepathy-glib0 libtidy-0.99-0 libvdpau1 libwmf0.2-7 libwpd-0.9-9 libwpg-0.2-2 libwps-0.2-2 libwv-1.2-4 libzephyr4 lubuntu-core mplayer2 pidgin-data x11-apps x11-session-utils x11-xfs-utils xinit xorg" Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. While some of these packages are, in fact, no longer needed, execution of this autoremove suggestion would render the user's system unusable.
