It's this same cycling-activates-dependencies problem that makes it impossible to remove all X Windows-related packages once any one of them is installed. The relationships between all the font, graphics, and sound packages is mystifying. I don't want to use any of them, but I can't seem to get rid of them. On several occasions I've spent about an hour trying again and again to request that they all be removed, but there's always one that's a dependency of something else installed, and if you dare accidentally cycle through the Skip/Keep/Install/Remove choice one step too far, the house of cards tumbles down again. -- Steven E.
