Is there something you did to prevent this? Hi Hunter, For Bullseye I also block usrmerge so I have a file in /etc/apt/preferences.d which starts with: # BLOCK usrmerge Package: usrmerge Pin: version * Pin-Priority: -1000 # BLOCK *systemd* AND upstart Package: *systemd*:* upstart:* Pin: version * Pin-Priority: -1000 (Buster was a little trickier as I still needed libsystemd0 back then.) FWIW I just successfully installed and then uninstalled synaptic although I don't normally use it. --Mike ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
