Hello all,
I did not succed uninstalling neither Firefox nor Thunderbird, while
keeping the "redmond-default-settings-kde3" package, with the graphic
tools
Synaptic, Adept and Kpackage. :-/ :-/
Sincerely,
Patrick
That is because redmond-default-settings-kde3 depends on both of those
tools. It is an unadvertised (internal) convenience package used to
create the Enterprise Edition LiveDVD for Ubuntu.
I suppose if there is interest in that package I could look into moving
some dependencies into the recommends field instead, but I would need a
list of applications that should be moved there.

Hi Tim,
Indeed, the package "kubuntu-default-settings-trinity" was added. Simply reinstalling the package should be
enough to restore my
system, if I have this trouble again?
I would think so. Without that package, the system reverts to a very
old
set of defaults that don't work the way most people would expect.
