Besides all of the above, auto-removable packages don't turn up in this tool. Really, auto-removable packages should be all that's represented here until we can figure out how to avoid removing intentionally- installed software.
Idea 1: Why not modify gdebi to record which out-of-repository packages the user installs? That way we could avoid removing those packages, since we know they were explicitly added by the user. Idea 2: Add a "Not Cruft" button to cruft-remover. This should write to the same 'whitelist' gdebi would contribute to in idea 1. -- System cleaner removes explicitly installed third-party packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285746 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
