![]() TL DR or "Just scorch my pi" sudo apt-get remove -auto-remove -purge 'libx11-.*' Is there an easier way? Is there a "super" package which owns all of this graphical stuff and can be removed, taking all it's dependencies with it? From my understanding, it doesn't look like this is possible, because these things have not been automatically installed, meaning I need to track them all down and remove them all explicitly. Which seems a little odd for a remove operation. ![]() I made the above list by looking in aptitude for all packages in the Installed Packages -> x11 -> main section that were not "automatic installs".įor some reason when I run this, apt-get tells me that: The following extra packages will be installed: Sudo apt-get remove desktop-base lightdm lxappearance lxde-common lxde-icon-theme lxinput lxpanel lxpolkit lxrandr lxsession-edit lxshortcut lxtask lxterminal obconf openbox raspberrypi-artwork xarchiver xinit xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-video-fbdev But I keep getting lots of package updates for all the desktop stuff that I don't use (I run apticron to notify me of pending updates via email), so I'd like to completely apt-get remove all the unnecessary packages to avoid these unnecessary updates. I've already disabled "Start desktop on boot" using raspi-config as described here. I'm using my Raspberry Pi as a headless server which I can ssh into.
