How to remove Mono from Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx
Quote:
apt-get purge libmono* libgdiplus cli-common libglitz-glx1 libglitz1
Should work just as well in Debian.
Duh just noticed you using the same commands, move along nothing to see here.
Do aptitude keep-all before you remove anything and see what the difference is.

What Debian version are you using?
I suspect something other than the mono removal may be causing this.
Have you done a update and upgrade recently? If not I suggest you do that first. If you really don't want to please check that your packages are in a "good" state. EG.
Code:
aptitude -f install
and
and
Code:
dpkg --configure --pending
if needed.
Another possibility is that some packges eg brasero was pulled in as an automatic package when you installed the "gnome" meta package, so apt wants to remove it when mono and hence gnome are removed. If this is the case you can probably do something like:
Code:
aptitude remove libmono* brasero-

Well there could be some packaging weirdness... I understand that squeeze is not in such a good state at the moment.
Did you manage to remove mono while keeping the packages you want? Ie did you try my suggestions?
