Quoting Michael Lake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
That option is not listed in man dpkg or man apt-get.
'apt-get autoremove test'
Invalid operation autoremove

Mike,

On older debian/ubuntu installs you can use deborphan to find any packages that are no longer required. Then if you also install wajig (an commandline apt frontend amongst other things) you can do something similiar to 'apt-get autoremove'

eg:

wajig remove <package>
wajig removeorphans
