After entering sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev intltool
a lot of important stuff deleted automaticly. No graphic interface available anymore! Need help!
I use hotot as twitter UI on my desktop. However the search api or something was broken so I searched online for help.
After some dialogue with someone online who reccomended me to type in terminal:
sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev intltool
Which I was "smart" enough to do, a lot of things automaticly got deleted.
Now ubuntu starts in only text so I assumed the GUI was broken. Running the command xstart
shows me that "X" was not installed (anymore). I thought i was clever to try sudo apt-get install xorg
, but this didn't help.
after this I tried reinstalling the desktop sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
but still no results.
I wasn't thinking this far ahead before installing libqt4-dev intltool (I hope to say this correct), so no backup was made.
I don't want to be loosing everything I have accumilated by doing a fresh install, so please help me!
-EDIT 08 dec 2013-
Tried reinstalling X with 'sudo apt-get install twm'
Command 'startx' still doesn't give thedesired result.

As far as I am concerned this question can be closed. Credits to Dash_plus_Java.
I'm still curious for the cause, though. I will keep looking for the actions that made me create this mishap.
