Re: [Fink-beginners] Re: amarok deps

[matz.org <mat...@gm...>]

thanks for your answers!
so, what do you suggest to do?
just say "yes" and install all that stuff or is there an alternative
way to avoid the installations of all that packages?
"That, and the most stable by far of the output backends amarok has at
it's disposal is GStreamer, which is a gnome framework and brings in a
*ton* of gnome dependencies." what do you mean benjamine?

so you say that i can remove all "fink dumpinfo -f Depends amarok"
output packages, right? since i see that fink will install 184
packages, is there a way to feed fink with that list of packeges to
unistall?

thanks for your help!
