Hi,

I am not exactly using Debian but building another distribution with DPKG and APT as basic package management suite. But we just found that, when doing apt-get autoremove, there was not a warning or extra notice for removing packages which sometimes leads to a broken system...

Well, I would really want to hear what you guys think...
