RE: dpkg and dependecies



Huh?  You *are* automating it... why do you think it installs "several other
programs and/or libraries also"?

If you didn't need it beforehand, why would you have wanted it installed?
Until it's needed,. leave it in the archives.

Subject:	dpkg and dependecies

is there anyway to get dpkg or even apt-get to reslove dependencies while
installing? for some reason (i think i missed something during the
install) my system is missing a large amount of needed programs and
libraries, such that anytime i try to install a program i usually install
several other programs and/or libraries also. just wondering if there is a
way to automate this. thanks.
