OK, so I ran sudo aptitude purge kqemu-sources no go. So I ran sudo aptitude -f install no go. So I ran sudo dpkg -l kqemu-source and the package was shown installed but not configured. Sent the results to Dave. Meanwhile I ran sudo aptitude remove kqemu-source This time it removed the package and two no longer used dependencies. Either there was some weird difference between remove and purge (unlikely), or I misspelled kqemu-source (probably). Since I used the up arrow for variations of things I was trying, I probably repeated the typo. I going to guess quemu instead of qemu. Thanks, and never mind.... Attachment:
