Too bad I haven't knewed on reporting this bug how to set the locale to an english one because I was new to Linux this time. But even if the maintainer can't clarify this report as a real bug it doesn't mean that it isn't one. I have checked my attached log again and am sure that this was definitely a bug. I will explain it again: "apt-get autoremove alsa-utils" has tried only to remove alsa-utils. Using directly after this "apt-get autoremove" has tried to remove linux-sound-base (--purge was not needed for this. I don't know why I have used it in the log). So linux-sound-base wasn't any recommended or suggested package on my system. Theoretically the first command "apt-get autoremove alsa-utils" should remove alsa-utils and find all dependencies that are not recommended and not suggested to any other installed package of my system and remove them. But apt hasn't done this. This all is now ~2 years ago and the dependencies of alsa-utils has changed so that I had to test it with other packages and apt-get autoremove PKG will work as expected: It removes the given package and does an autoremove after this. > If you no longer experience an issue but can not identify where it was fixed (i.e. the particular changelog entry) then mark it as either incomplete or invalid. In this case it is not clear that there ever was a bug so there can hardly have been a fix released for it. It seems nobody has tried to fix this bug directly because he saw this ticket. I have seen often tickets which was miraculous fixed after a while. This is nothing special because some bugs are randomy fixed with a commit. And in ~2 years there were surely many commits released which had the chance to randomly fix this issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/667468 Title: apt-get autoremove don't find all packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/667468/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
