I was doing an dist-upgrade and kde was being removed. Should I be

Using aptitude?


Using apt-get

If you use KDE, it's a definite concern.
If you don't, you're better off for a lighter system.

Which release were you upgrading from and to?
When using apt-get, it's generally better to do -u dist-upgrade so that
you can see what's going on, from my days of using it.
Regards,


I do use kde. I was just wondering whether this package has been subsumed by another. I'm running etch, and was just doing a routine upgrade.
