Ubuntu :: Use Sudo Apt-get Autoremove Will Remove All The Mentioned Packages Including Freemat
Aug 21, 2010From the terminal I got this message: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libqt4-opengl freemat freemat-help libgfortran3 libsdl-ttf2.0-0 libmikmod2 libqt4-svg libblas3gf libamd2.2.0 libsdl-mixer1.2 libumfpack5.4.0 freemat-data libsmpeg0 Ok, what I really don't understand is that why is it that Freemat, my most important software, is listed as "no longer required"? Of course if I use sudo apt-get autoremove will remove all the mentioned packages including Freemat.

Mar 22, 2011I had a dual boot system (Ubuntu 10.04 and XP) and had a problem with my XP and had to reinstall it. Unfortunately I forgot to backup the boot file. After the re-installation of XP, I can't load Ubuntu 10.04 anymore, so I booted up Ubuntu 10.10 using USB, during the install, it didn't give an option to do a repair, so I did an install along with other OS. After the install, the GRUB showed now 3 OS:
Ubuntu 10.10
Win XP
Ubuntu 10.04
How can I remove the newly installed Ubuntu 10.10 without damaging the other OS? I'd like to keep the 10.04 because it's all customized and have several apps already installed.

View 3 Replies View RelatedDebian :: How To Remove Packages From Unresponsive System
Apr 23, 2015Since I'm running Sid. Let's assume package foo has been upgraded via apt-get dist-upgrade, and it causes a serious bug so that Sid is never able to fully start up, and is not even able to get me to the console to remove the package.
(Reword: let's assume that I upgraded the system despite apt-listbug warning me that foo had serious issues.)
Is it possible for me to remove the package and get back in? Everything I've seen online assumes that I could at least access console--but this hypothetical bug doesn't allow that.
If it were in Arch, I would just boot from the live dist, arch-chroot into the / directory, and try to remove foo via pacman. But Debian doesn't offer a live disk past Stable, so I suspect that this wouldn't work with a Wheezy disk?
Am I asking for an impossible situation, or can a troublesome package be removed from an unresponsive Sid?
Ubuntu :: Quickly Remove Multiple Related Packages From Command Line?
Feb 15, 2011Is there any way to quickly remove multiple related packages from the command line instead of having to enter the name of every single one? I am trying to remove OpenOffice from my server running 10.04. It would work nicely if I could get a list of packages without line breaks, such as the list displayed by aptitude when upgrading. That way I could just paste the package list into the terminal. However, "aptitude search 'openoffice'" dumps a long list on many lines that cannot be used that way.
View 3 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Remove Packages To Make Minimal System?
Apr 2, 2009Continuing on my quest to build a system with sole purpose of being a LAMP server, I am trying to have the bare minimum number of packages installed. I'm not trying to disable as many deamons as possible, but actually remove any package that is not required. It might sound a bit extreme but each package that is installed that is not needed is using valuable space on the expensive (and small) 36GB 15krpm SAS disk.
Also it is a damage control approach, in that assuming a cracker finds an exploit in Apache or PHP that allows them to run executables on the filesystem then taking away as many tools as possible will help in damage limitation. For example I don't want an SSH client installed on the system as it has no purpose for me but could be used by a cracker to access other systems on the network, if they compromise that system.
I have installed the absolute minimum from the 5.3 install by deselecting everything during install but that still leaves a great deal of unnecessary packages installed. Seeing as how the system is a 64bit installation and will have no 32bit apps running on it I have first uninstalled all the i386 versions of various libraries. I presume their only function is to provide compatibility for 32bit apps.
I have been looking for information about removing other packages but I don't seem to be able to find information on real dependancies. For example I believe I have no need for dmraid as it is for managing software RAID arrays that I have no intention using. but if I attempt to remove it the dependancies include kernel and mkinitrd. What I can't figure out though is if these are hard dependancies in that those packages will fail to work or soft ones that simply mean without dmraid it will not be possible to configure the software raid module that is loaded into the kernel.
What packages would people recommend to remove, anyone seen a good guide to reducing down CentOS/RHEL to the absolute minimum ? python-elementtree-1.2.6 : Is this really required by YUM ? m2crypto-0.16 x86_64 : Is this really used by YUM, I didn't think YUM connected via SSL ?

Aug 22, 2010Just installed Fedora 13. And just as i finished installing, recovering backup and configuring everything. I realized that i forgot to make an extra partition (for experimenting with other distros).
During the Fedora installation i chose to include all three hard drives in the file system. So now sda, sdb and sdc are all included in the lvm group.
Found this thread in the forum: [URL]
Can i follow these steps to shrink the partition on sdc without damaging my current fedora installation? Can i run the commands straight from the shell, or do i need to boot up from a livecd?

Fedora :: Install / Remove Packages Written On A Text File?
Sep 9, 2010I use the show-leaves yum plugin, and sometimes I use that info to remove some unnecessary packages. But that list can be long, so I write them on a text file.

2) Why isn't the output of the show-leaves plugin compatible with the output of "package-cleanup --leaves"?

Fedora Installation :: Safely Remove Unsupported Packages After FC13 Upgrade?
Jun 2, 2010I managed to successfully upgrade FC11 to FC13. While doing the post upgrade steps, I made a HUGE mistake. After identifying the unsupported packages, I used "yum remove package1 package2" command to remove the obsoleted ones without realizing the yum was also removing many FC13 packages! Here are the cmd sequence used:
# package-cleanup --orphans
...
# yum remove compat-db45-4.5.20-5.fc10.i386 flash-plugin-10.0.32.18-release.i386 gnome-spell-1.0.8-5.fc9.i386 ifd-egate-0.05-21.i586
[code]....
I simply typed Yes and left unattended for a few minutes after yum prompted there were # of packages to be removed as I blindly believed it would do the job. After returning to the computer, I found many installed icons were disappearing, the wireless suddenly turned off etc. I killed the yum process right away but it was too late.
