Re: Feature request



  If you want this functionality, you should use a higher-level apt
frontend such as aptitude or deborphan.  apt-get is a small, low-level
program that's shipped with apt, and it doesn't do this sort of
complicated operation (which, among other things, need to store extra
state information on disk to work).
