Dear Michael,

So, uhm, what am I missing here? TDE isn’t really
dependent on a
laptop daemon, right? My desktop does not need that package, right?
you're using apt-get, so I'm assuming you are on a debian-based system.
This command tells you the dependencies which caused a package to be
installed:
$ aptitude why klaptopdaemon-trinity
i desktop-base-trinity Suggests tde-trinity
p tde-trinity Depends tdeutils-trinity (>= 4:14.0.0~)
p tdeutils-trinity Depends klaptopdaemon-trinity (>= 4:14.0.8-0debian8.0.0+0)
tdeutils-trinity is a meta-package which gets removed because it
depends on klaptopdaemon-trinity.
This command tells you the dependencies of a package:
$ aptitude search "?reverse-depends(tdeutils-trinity)"
i ark-trinity - graphical archiving tool for Trinity
i kcalc-trinity - calculator for Trinity
p kcharselect-trinity - character selector for Trinity
i kdf-trinity - disk space utility for Trinity
i kedit-trinity - basic text editor for Trinity
p kfloppy-trinity - floppy formatter for TDE
i kgpg-trinity - GnuPG frontend for Trinity
i khexedit-trinity - Trinity hex editor
p kjots-trinity - note taking utility for Trinity
p klaptopdaemon-trinity - battery monitoring and management for
laptops using
p kmilo-trinity - laptop special keys support for Trinity
i kregexpeditor-trinity - graphical regular expression editor plugin
for Trini
p ksim-trinity - system information monitor for Trinity
p ktimer-trinity - timer utility for Trinity
p superkaramba-trinity - a program based on karamba improving the
eyecandy of
p tdelibs-trinity-dbg - debugging symbols for tdelibs
p tdelibs14-trinity-dev - development files for the TDE core
libraries
p tdelirc-trinity - infrared control for Trinity
i tdessh-trinity - ssh frontend for Trinity
i tdewalletmanager-trinity - wallet manager for Trinity
What’s the proper command to remove it?
I don't know how to do it with apt-get, maybe someone else does in case
it is possible.
Generally, you need to remove the meta-package tdeutils-trinity which
depends on klaptopdaemon-trinity and keep the other packages on which
tdeutils-trinity depends to only remove klaptopdaemon-trinity.
I think there are different ways to achieve that. One I prefer to go
in such cases utilises aptitude. With this tool you can interactively
resolve the dependencies.
Or, you can mark all packages on which tdeutils-trinity depends and which
you want to keep as manually installed and then remove tdeutils-trinity
and klaptopdaemon-trinity.
HTH
Kind regards,

klaptopdaemon-trinity NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!
