Debian Configuration :: How To Remove Package That Ties With Core Ones

Aug 7, 2011

I have this package dependency question for a while. I have brand new Squeeze system. I selected desktop during installation. Gnome is default system but I turned off gdm3 and uses fluxbox as window manager. I understand if two packages are tied together funtionally so that removal of either package terminates one feature. Above cases, many small packages only depends on the core packages. The core packages work fine without games, other programs.

There are so many programs that I want to remove in the system. For examples, ekiga is a VoIP program that I never use it. When I tried to remove it using apt-get or aptitude, it suggests entire gnome packages will be removed also, which is illogical. The only solution I found is I need to manually remove the package files. I haven't tried it yet.

Ubuntu :: Apt-get (use Aptitude Purge To Remove All Associated Files Of A Package)?

May 2, 2010

Did a fresh install of 10.04 Desktop 86_64 this weekend. One of the first issues I noticed right away was that apt was not function properly. Say for example you install the packages tor and vidalia (assume I'm running everything from root). #apt-get install tor vidalia This command will check and install necessary dependencies, for example 'privoxy'. Now if you decide that you don't want to use privoxy and instead use polipo, you would probably feel inclined to remove privoxy. Well I found that apt-get autoremove, apt-get remove, apt-get purge WILL NOT remove all the files/directories associated with the package. You'll find that after running each of these commands, there will still be directories, scripts, etc. in /etc/init, /etc, and /etc/rc*.d. The only solution I've found to completely removing a package is aptitude purge [package].

CentOS 5 :: Yum Correspond Exactly With Add / Remove Software Package Manager?

Jul 18, 2010

When I call (in CentOS v5.4) the Package Manager through menu
Applications->Add/remove Software
Do I get exactly the same information (as GUI) as when I use "yum" (as cmdline)? Do both tools show essentially always the same info about installed software? Or is it possible that yum does not something about software which is installed by GUI Package manager or vice versa? Do they share the same software repository database?

CentOS 5 :: The Centos-release-notes Package Simply Contains A Bunch Of Text/html Files That Nothing Else Relies Upon?

Apr 3, 2009

Why does centos-release-notes have any dependancies ?

I can see no reason why centos-relese-notes should depend on centos-release when I try "yum erase centos-release-notes" I am told there are 72 dependancies including completely irrelevant packages such as tar all because of this unnecessary dependancy.

The centos-release-notes package simply contains a bunch of text/html files that nothing else relies upon, so why the dependancies ?

Red Hat :: List Modified Configuration Files [ CentOS 5.4 ]?

Feb 20, 2010

I am searching for a program which may be used in order to display a list of modified (non-distribution-default) configuration files. For example, assume we have installed package "example-utility" which uses /etc/example-utility.conf as one of its configuration files. The package provides a default configuration file upon its installation. Assume we have modified /etc/example-utility.conf according to our needs. This file should be included in the listing produced by the program I am looking for.

If such a tool does not exist, I would like to create it. However, I am new to RPM-based systems, and, as such, I am having difficulties finding the necessary documentation. Should I be reading the yum source code? Is there some sort of document describing the package database on RH/CentOS/etc. systems and how 3rd party applications are supposed to work with this database?

Ubuntu :: How To Remove The Package

Jun 17, 2010

10.04 installation (that worked fine for weeks) does not boot anymore (soft lockup). After some googling I suspect that the problem is the installation of the hostap_utils-package that I performed the last time I could use it. I am on a Thinkpad X30 without CD-drive and don't have my docking station at hand, but fortunately I still have a working 8.04 installation on it and I from that I can mount the 10.04 partition.

So my question is: Is there a good way to remove a package from a 10.04 installation when you cannot boot it directly but have access to the filesystem? Alternatively could someone please post all the files that belong to the hostap_utils package so I can just delete them manually (even though that probably is not a clean way to remove a package..).

Ubuntu :: Cannot Remove The Package Kdm

Apr 20, 2011

I had installed some kde app a while ago which I didn't want anymore so I uninstalled it and noticed that I didn't need the million kde dependencies that program had required. So I uninstalled all those, and everything went fine except for kdm which gives me the following error:

Code:

$ sudo apt-get purge kdm
[sudo] password for user:
Reading package lists... Done

[code]...

I was able to autoremove it, just not purge it (removing the config files left over).

Ubuntu :: How To Remove Package I Can't Find?

May 28, 2011

I couldn't find an amd64 version of the package I wanted, so I forced the architecture on the i386 version I found. (The package in question is xinput-calibrator, so that I can finally get my touchscreen to work.) I later found and added the repository that has the 64 version and tried to install it. It won't install the 64 version because I already have the i386 version. But it also won't let me remove the i386 version.
