I suspected that installing xfce4
cause some issues in Ubuntu so I removed them using apt-get remove xfce4 xfce4-goodeis
.
But when I ran 'dpkg -l' I still can see some libraries and packages for xfce4:
$ dpkg -l | grep -i xfce
rc libexo-1-0:amd64 0.10.2-2 amd64 Library with extensions for Xfce

rc xfwm4 4.11.1-0ubuntu1~ppa0.13.10.1 amd64 window manager of the Xfce project
I copy-pasted all these packageslibraries to form an apt-get remove
command to remove all of these dependencies, and the command ran normally, but running dpkg -l | grep -i xfce
showed these dependencies again !
Why are these dependencies still installed ?
