I installed both while testing Desktop enviroments and not want them completely removed, but this task seems harder than I thought.
Thank You, that worked!
In this forum software, how do you hide URLs behind text? For example, how did you make "this post" a link?
Basic HTML markups work: a, em, cite, code, etc.
However you should avoid doing that because I believe there is a bug in the mailing list integration and such "hidden" links are lost there.
Another reason to avoid it: the forum software causes those links to break if they have underscores (it adds and to the link, breaking it). This is because of the forum software trying to add in an underline effect when underscores are wrapped around some text.
In theory, when you install a package that depends on some additional packages (even if not), APT calls a sub-process called apt-mark, which marks all the user selected packages as "manually installed", while all the dependencies are marked as "automatically installed". Therefore, if you remove some previously (manually) installed packages, you can use the command
sudo apt-get autoremove
to remove all remaining dependencies that was automatically installed, and are no longer required. You can use one of the following commands
-
apt-mark showmanual
outputs all the manually installed packages
-
apt-mark showmanual|grep lxde
filters the output, showing only packages containing the term lxde
-
apt-mark showmanual|more
outputs one screen at a time
-
apt-mark showmanual &> manual.pkg
outputs everything into a file
to help you choose/remember which LXDE/XFCE meta-packages was previously installed.
Do you mean sudo apt-get autoremove lxde(or xfce4)?
