When you remove it before installing, you can and it works. When you
try after, it's broken. However, I have found that when I do remove
before, when I try to install other programs after installation, I get
all those I removed listed as dependencies UNLESS I taboo them. That
just doesn't make sense to me.

Kind of like getting a wheel bearing repack when you got a brake job,
but didn't order the repack :^)

The repack wasn't *necessary* (maybe), but was a "good idea".

Bad analogy Patrick...repacking is a safety issue in many cases, loading unneeded and unwanted software isn't.
