SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       list of orphaned packages with dialog or  whiptail.  Pack-
       ages  may  be  selected  for removal with apt-get which is
       then called to do the work. After removal a  new  list  of

       ends when either `Cancel' is  pressed  or  no  package  is
       marked for removal.
