Yes, quite a few of them are depends of python-qt4 or libqtwebkit

Can anybody post the current code for apt-notifier, actually, can we post it on github along with current version of minstall?

(although PyGTK that might solve the problem, not sure how big in the pygtk runtime environment)
I mentioned it before in a PM to Jerry that it might be possible to create a gtk version of the apt-notifier.
Latest debianized source is here: http://main.mepis-deb.org/mepiscr/testr ... t-notifier, I can post just the apt-notifier.py python script if you want it.

It is fabulous! I think apt-notifier blows update-notifier/update-manager out of the warer.

When I posted my simulation I failed to notice the autoremoves:

Code: Select all

The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libavcodec54 libavutil52
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
When you add those two packages to the removals you get

Code: Select all

...After this operation, 19.3 MB disk space will be freed.

I had already removed those apps so we don't save more space. 696MB it is so we have 4MB to play with to include extra wireless firmware, grub-customizer
