Not a wonderful solution but try this: $ aptitude search -F "%p" ~i | grep "\-trinity[ \t]*$" | sed "s;\-trinity;;" It should give the list of every installed trinity package on whose the suffix '-trinity' in their names are removed. Then, you should be able to remove every kde4 packages that matches trinity installed ones (e.g., konqueror removed if konqueror-trinity is installed): # aptitude remove $(aptitude search -F "%p" ~i | grep "\-trinity[ \t]*$" | sed "s;\-trinity;;") this is not perfect since it won't remove every kde4 packages, but it will remove conflicting apps. After this is done (you may have struggled a little with dependencies), you could try: # aptitude remove ~g to remove every packaged that are not required by any manually installed package. Now, you shouldn't have a lot of remaining kde4 packages. Nicolas
