           Summary: osso-software-version-rx34 AKA "OS2008 Feature Upgrade"
                    dependencies prevent removing many packages
           Product: System software
           Version: 4.1.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Low
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: nobody at maemo.org
        ReportedBy: josh at freedesktop.org
         QAContact: hafqa at maemo.org


SOFTWARE VERSION:
4.2008.30-2

The metapackage "osso-software-version-rx34", shown in the application
installer as "OS2008 Feature Upgrade", provides system update functionality. 
However, it also depends on numerous packages, many of which I would like to
remove.  Previous versions of maemo did not complain when I removed these
packages, but with this version I cannot remove these packages without removing
the osso-software-version-rx34 metapackage and losing system update
functionality.

Packages I would like to remove:

adobe-flashplayer
gizmo-installer
rhapsody-installer
skype-installer
promo-applet

pre-installed-documentation-rx34
pre-installed-images
pre-installed-sounds
pre-installed-videos


Removing these packages frees up more space and removes menu items I won't ever
use.
