So I'm back to where I was - Firefox and Thunderbird are broken
(upload/download dialog boxes)
I can't remove gtk-qt-engine-trinity and kgtk-qt3-trinity without removing
dozens of other packages.
Sounds like 3.5.13.1 is broken to me.

Feedback? Contact my director, Matt Younkins, younkinsm(a)ou.edu. Thank you!
When I try to
remove those two packages, apt-get wants to also remove
kubuntu-desktop-trinity AND it says that since *those* guys are gone,
autoremove will remove all *these* packages, too, and proceeds to list
about 75 other packages.
I have no idea why this happens. Perhaps package
dependancies in Kubuntu repo are screwed up? I
also don't know any reasonable way to prevent deinstalation of other 75 packages. I
think you
might be able to pin them but that would be tedious and I think it would prevent you from
getting
updaes to those packages (not sure).
