[Bug 189798] Re: emacs package does not uninstall fully
On a freshly installed Intrepid box, I get the same behavior: apt-get remove emacs removes only the base emacs package, nothing else. However, this is what I expect from apt-get; with aptitude, the default is to remove dependent unused packages, whereas with apt-get, it's not (or at least, used to not be, and seems to continue to be that way). Indeed, aptitude remove emacs removes all the packages that apt-get installed. I would be tempted to mark this bug as Invalid (works as designed, although one could argue about whether the design is good), but leave it up to the package owner to decide. ** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- emacs package does not uninstall fully https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/189798 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
