reversely delete
Hello:
I don't know if this is a repeat in this thread, and I'm still
wondering this, I call it "reversely delete".
Apt-get and dpkg are really good tools for managing packages, I can
install a package conveniently, and the packages depended on by the top
package is installed automaticlly. Yet what if I want to remove a
package and I also want to remove the packages it depends on?
For example, I want to install A, and A depends on B and C and D.
And G depends on D.
A ---- B , C, D.
G ---- D.
Ok, I install them with no problem. Now I remove A, but B, C is
still on my disk, and they are no use. So I must check the dependence
and remove B and C. Can apt-get or dpkg remove B and C automaticlly when
I remove A ? Or is this function is planed in future? Or my opinion is
unworthiness ?
Best Regards.
