Re: Removing of package ddm-mx causes removal of mx-apps-kde [Solved]


So there is no way to keep mx-apps-kde but purge/remove ddm-mx.

Can we say that the meta package mx-apps-kde includes ddm-mx? And also can you please elaborate more on the following ?

Re: Removing of package ddm-mx causes removal of mx-apps-kde [Solved]

You could create the "LinuxSpring1" metapackage to install your favorite programs at once.

Re: Removing of package ddm-mx causes removal of mx-apps-kde [Solved]

Hi
It's the other way around, ddm-mx is a dependency of mx-apps-kde.
Uninstalling mx-apps-kde is not a problem, it's just a "metapackage"
With mx-apps-kde the MX developers decide what software you have installed. If you want to decide that, that package is enough for you.

Hi

"rc" means that you have uninstalled the program but NOT its configuration files.

Re: Pavel Durov, the founder of the Telegram messaging arrested in France...


It's a bit dangerous to cheer the attacks on people who make tools. Tools can be used in different ways, even Linux or MX can be used for illegal stuff, why would the creators be responsible for what the bad guys are doing? Also, while Telegram is not even encrypted by default I think all the ...

I don't use KDE, but you can just click on the green updater icon in the panel and let it run the updates.

1.) Automount Using GParted
I plan on just using MX Disk Manager but I also saw some people mentioning that this can be done in GParted, I was wondering if this was true, I didn't see a way to do this in that application.

As far as I know, gparted does not manage automout ...
