I thought I'd try purging them the so-called

when I get set to remove kdegames-trinity, it _looks_ like tde-trinity will

understand the implications.
What I do is, first make sure there are no autoremovable packages. Then
remove the metapackage. Then look at the packages that are now
autoremovable, and mark anything you want to keep as manually installed.
Then autoremove the rest.
don't know how the marking as manually installed is done but I can
look it up.
thanks.
