FWIW, the way it presents the solution makes it hard to see what's
really going on.  More specifically, the list of removed packages does
not distinguish the manually-installed packages from the
automatically-installed ones.

I usually don't care about removing automatically-installed packages,
whereas I rarely want to remove manually-installed packages.
