But I dont want to install them anymore. I dont even know anymore, why I wanted to install them in the first place. I did that a month ago. I just want apt-get to stop trying to install them every time I use it...
There seems to be a list of tasks, that apt-get uses to remember things to do and those two tasks are on it and never get removed. I would like to somehow clear that list. |
It sounds like it might be installing them to satisfy a dependency. It'd help a lot to know which application you're trying to install and the ones you don't want installed.
