"man apt-get" really would explain alot, specifically "-s"
and "-u". One thing that "man apt-get" doesn't explain
is that "-u" can be used with "remove" as well as "install",
even though the manpage is pretty explicit that "-u" is only
for upgrading packages.
# apt-get -s -u remove gnome-core
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
balsa eeyes gnome-admin gnome-applets gnome-core gnome-games
gnome-help gnome-media gnome-panel gnome-panel-data gnome-session
gnome-think gnome-utils irssi-gnome nofgpg
