Aptitude is supposed to remove package-dependencies along with packages, but in
fact it
does not. I think this behaviour showed first some time back, when purging
packages, so
dependencies of purged packages had to be removed manually. Now I found that
the feature
of removing dependencies automatically along with packages does not work
anymore at all.
It is quite sad, because this is actually the key feature, why to prefer
aptitude over
apt-get. Now, when dealing with the fglrx-driver and finding, that it is
broken, or dkms
is broken to say it a bit more precisely, I searched for all installed packages
with
fglrx in their names, then purged them manually. Now the dependencies of all
fglrx-packages would have to be removed, too, with deborphan or gtkorphan. I
think this
is not the way this is meant to be. Please restore aptitudes full power.

This is one of the reasons why one might prefer aptitude over apt-get, not the
only reason
it's full of great features of course, while not at all being over-featured at
the same
time. It's all in all completely lovable, so there s no need to keep this
ticket open.
