Understood so far.

But this isn't very helpful:

dfox@m206-157:/tmp$ deborphan xmms
xmms

And aptitude why-not xmms doesn't say anything other than "the package
xmms was manually installed". But it's got dependencies, and perhaps
one of those pulled it in. I can't remember if I explicitly asked for
it. Perhaps I did.
