This is equivalent to passing “-o Aptitude::Purge-Unused=true” as a command-line argument. English is not my first language and I understand the above that it removes packages which are no more required. And this is what the OP wants. Michael -- The only stupid question is the unasked question. And that's a good thing, because I hate stupid questions!
