- Subject: Uninstalling obsolete packages
I have tried to uninstall the obsolete packages. With SETUP:
unselect "Hide obsolete packages"
in "Category" view, click on "Default" of "_obsolete" until "Uninstall"
appears
next
But SETUP says that there are NOT obsolete packages that need obsolete:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Package: atk-runtime
Required by: gail, libbonoboui2, libglade2, libgnomeui2,
libgnomeui2-doc, libgtkhtml2, libwnck1_18, pygtk2
Package: clear
Required by: tetex-bin
Package: glib2-runtime
Required by: atk, desktop-file-utils, libbonoboui2, libglade2,
libgnomeprint22, pygtk2
Package: libxml2-python
Required by: pylibxslt
Package: pkgconfig
Required by: perl-ExtUtils-PkgConfig
--------------------------------------------------------------------
So the question is: Why NOT obsolete packages need obsolete ?
Perhaps they are not so obsolete...
Cheers,
Angelo.
