When you say "gnome", do you mean the package named "gnome"?

If so, you should be all right. Unless aptitude does something stupid.


Sorry for my inaccurate description.


Here's aptitude's warning:

gnome-games will be removed.

The following packages depend on gnome-games and will be broken by its
removal:

*gnome-desktop-environment depends on gnome-games (>= 1: 2.14.3)


What happens when gnome-desktop-environment will be broken. I never use
it anyway. But IIRC I've read that some kde apps use some gnome stuff.
So I don't know if I can safely remove gnome-games.

I rather have gnome-desktop-environment removed completely, but I don't
know what part or apps of kde will be broken then.

Thanks, Manon.


Please don't use html mail....

The above mentioned packages are both meta-packages, so removing them
will not actually remove any packages on your system. Meta-packages are
just dummy packages with a list of dependencies to make fetching (or
updating) a bunch of packages easier.
