Doubleclick in "New" column toggles between "Skip" or "Keep" and the 
"preferred version". Ctrl+I selects the latter.and moves to the next row.

Press and hold Ctrl+U to select "Uninstall" for all. Then change to 
another view and back to "Unneeded" to see more possible unneeded packages.

Ctrl+K = "Keep", Ctrl+R = "Reinstall".
