If in doubt, look at the timestamps of the files in /var/lib/dpkg/. Regards, -- Nicolas George

The grub.cfg tells us: if background_image /usr/share/desktop-base/softwaves-theme/grub/grub-4x3.png; So apt purge desktop-base will remove grub-4x3.png. Then 'update-grub'. -- Brian.

In my experience it's usually the other way around, packages are kept, e.g. because the default for APT::AutoRemove::SuggestsImportant and APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant is true.
