Hallo,
Tim Hall hat gesagt: // Tim Hall wrote:
hotplug is also involved in a chain of dependencies,
which go:
hotplug <-ezusbmidi<-demudi-midi<-demudi-soundapps.
I'm hoping the last two are 'empty' packages, but I'm wary, because the
ONE
thing I DO want (and what got me into this mess in the first place) is to be
able to fire up an external synth.
firewire, usb & pcmcia I can do without.
I'm being double cautious due to the number of times I've lost the function I
needed due to deleting something that seemed irrelevant.
Be a little but careful here. demudi-midi and demudi-soundapps are so
called tasks, IIR, they are itself empty, but depend on other
packages to fulfill a task like "midi software in general". So I think
it might be okay to remove them (try "apt-get -s remove hotplug"
first), but YMMV.
I don't quite see why you *want* to remove hotplug. I see a lot of
harmless warning messages on startup. That's perfectly normal on
Linux.
ciao
