Ultimate Edition Forum

So i need to upgrade my lintian version. so i run command to purge but then i see that it wants to remove not only lintian but also ultimate-edition-2.7, see below. My question is why does apt want to get rid of the Ultimate Edition repo?
I know i have seen this before but it has been a while and i forgot the reasoning!!



stlsaint@devcore:~/projects/lxdm/lxdm_trunk/debian$ sudo apt-get purge lintian

What happens if you remove via synaptic ?

Hey sorry for late response...i get the same thing. Synaptic tells me that ue2.7 will be removed.

seen it before with other applications.

What I have always done was went threw with it and reinstalled the apps etc before restart .

Putting it all back. Reckon thee might know of a better way.

Man you see that list of apps that will be removed!!
Thats way to many to be trying to re-install. Hopefully another member may be able to give some more insight. My next question would be why is lintian which is a native package to debian be so tied into the Ultimate Edition repo as it is??

agreed, not cool.

Also looks a bit odd. But i also see this application (deb checking) roots its self into every last deb installed.

I also read a butt load of complaints about such activity.

Hi

It seems to me you are skipping some of the info in the last 7 lines in the quote from your terminal:

@Uffe, i don't see what i am missing, it is showing that Ultimate Edition 2.7 will be removed....

As I read it, it says that you will have to actively use "

Code: Select all

'apt-get autoremove'

to remove the Ultimate Edition packages

If you enter "y" you only remove the 2 lintian packages.

- but better let GURU confirm it

Even when i try removing via synaptic it shows that ue2.7 will also be removed.
