Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt

Hi,
on really annoying bug... if you use "apt-get -s autoremove" (and you think you are on the save side, only "dry-run"ing) apt-get does actually remove everything it wants to. tough luck :)

Sorry, I was wrong, it's not really removing anything, it just seems to.
I think I was fooled by aptitudes "would have removed" or similar, which apt-get doesn't say, the output suggest that apt-get really did what it shows.
So it's confusing, but in the end, it's not a real bug.

(can I actually remove my own bug-report if I made a mistake?)
