[Bug 1042412] Re: ubuntu softwaremanagement

[Affenputtel]

Thanks for your answer, but the problem is:

I just want to be able undo the last installation or previous
installations in the exact same reverse way as is installed them.

For example, i install on a session on 23.07.2012 package x, then
package x y and z are installed too. When i want to remove x then x y
and z stay and use disc space. I want to undo the session 23.07.2012
exactly the same way i installed.

Title:
  ubuntu softwaremanagement

Status in “aptitude” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  when i install a program, there are libs and other stuff installed
  also. When i remove the program again, the libs and the other stuff
  stays on the hdd. This sucks, there is no way to reverse an
  installation.

  sudo apt-get --purge autoremove PAKET

  is the way i know, but sometimes it deletes other stuff, which was on
  the system before. Like the game "abuse", it want to remove 10
  packages, not only the 2 abuse and abuse-lib.

  Perhaps it is useful to create a protocol of installed files, when
  using apt-get or synapitic. So the user can select his different
  installing sessions and reverse them. This would be very useful.
