How can I make deborphan tell the truth about what
libraries I don't need?

root at lucky:~# deborphan
root at lucky:~# apt-get remove libjpeg62-dev
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  libjpeg62-dev
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 11 not
upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 422kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
(Reading database ... 48198 files and directories
currently installed.)
Removing libjpeg62-dev ...

If nothing is depending on libjpeg62-dev, why isn't
deborphan telling me that I can remove libjpeg62-dev ?

I'm down to 590 packages, from 1000, but that's still
LOADS, I hate knoppix :(

fizz (who worked out he can ssh home from his new job
today :D )
