4. Can someone share the equivalent 'aptitude why' output from a
system running KDE?


On Kubuntu (which I know isn't debian, but it's all I have at the moment):

muzer@muzer-desktop:~$ aptitude why twm
i   kdm Recommends kdebase | x-session-manager | x-window-manager
p   twm Provides   x-window-manager
muzer@muzer-desktop:~$

Note that I don't actually have it installed:

muzer@muzer-desktop:~$ aptitude show twm

Description: Tab window manager
twm is a window manager for the X Window System. It provides title bars, shaped windows, several forms of icon management, user-defined macro functions, click-to-type and pointer-driven keyboard focus, and user-specified key and
pointer button bindings.

(Again, this is for Kubuntu, not Debian, so it could be different, but I doubt it)
